Import Tips & Compliance

Verify galvanized coating and exact diameter measurement exceeds 9.5mm with caliper for accurate HTS classification

Provide mill test certificates confirming iron/steel composition and tensile strength to avoid misclassification

Ensure no electrical insulation; common pitfall is confusing with Chapter 85 wiring products
