Import Tips
• Conduct thread pitch gauge tests to confirm metric coarse threading aligns with 'other screws' spec
• Avoid bulk packaging over 25 kg to prevent potential shift to Chapter 73 scrap/parts scrutiny
• Include end-use declarations for construction to differentiate from machine-specific fasteners
