Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify stainless steel grade (e.g

• 304 or 316) via material certificates to confirm classification and avoid reclassification as carbon steel

• Ensure accurate diameter measurement of shank/thread (6mm+) with calipers; smaller sizes shift to 7318.14.50.10

• Provide thread pitch and head type specs in entry docs to distinguish from bolts under 7318.15
