Import Tips
• Verify chain pitch (typically 1/2 inch or 12.7 mm) and part count (>3 per pitch) via manufacturer specs to confirm HTS 7315.11.0010 classification
• Include detailed technical drawings and material certificates (iron/steel composition) in documentation to avoid misclassification as parts
