Import Tips & Compliance

Verify stainless steel grade (e.g

304 or 316) via material certificates to confirm classification under stainless steel subheading

Ensure threading matches international standards like ISO 4032 to avoid reclassification as non-standard fittings

Provide mill test reports for customs to prevent duties shifting to general steel nuts
