Import Tips
• Include engineering drawings showing acorn dome design to justify 'lugnut' over general nut classification
• Test for rust resistance if carbon steel; common issue is customs demanding proof against corrosion standards
• Avoid bulk packaging mimicking industrial nuts—package as wheel sets to align with automotive use
