Import Tips
• Provide pressure rating certifications; low-pressure tees risk misclassification as plastic fittings
• Label as 'ductile iron' clearly to avoid confusion with gray iron under different subheadings
• For bulk shipments, ensure packing lists specify individual fittings to prevent set classification
