Import Tips
• Declare exact size reduction (e.g
• 4x3 NPS) on commercial invoice to prevent sizing disputes
• Provide hydrostatic test certifications; importers often overlook ductile iron's ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12 requirement
• Label for potable water compliance (NSF-61) if applicable to avoid reclassification issues
