Import Tips

• Verify chain pitch and part count per pitch with manufacturer specs to confirm HTS 7315.11.0045 classification; mismatches lead to reclassification

• Provide detailed engineering drawings or samples for CBP review to avoid disputes on 'roller chain' vs other chain types

• Ensure country-of-origin marking on packaging as chains are often scrutinized for anti-dumping duties from certain origins
