Import Tips
• Verify ductile iron composition via mill test reports to confirm classification under cast fittings, avoiding misclassification as wrought steel
• Include joint gasket specifications in documentation, as rubber compression seals must be explicitly noted for customs compliance
• Check for pressure ratings and AWWA standards certification to prevent valuation disputes on specialized municipal fittings
