Import Tips
• Verify galvanization certification and wall thickness measurements to confirm classification under 7306.30.50.31
• Include mill test reports showing nonalloy steel composition to avoid reclassification as alloy steel
• Ensure outside diameter does not exceed 50.8 mm; common pitfall is mismeasuring OD leading to higher duty brackets
