Import Tips
• Verify stainless steel grade (e.g
• 304 or 316) via material certificates to confirm classification and avoid reclassification to non-stainless codes
• Measure diameter precisely as exceeding 9.5mm shifts to 7312.10.60.90; include caliper measurements in documentation
• Ensure no electrical insulation; insulated cables classify under Chapter 85
