Import Tips
• Submit chemical analysis reports proving Ni ≥5% and alloy fits note (c); distinguish from brasses lacking sufficient nickel
• For musical instrument use, classify by material form (bar/rod), not end-use; avoid GRI 3 sets
• Rectangular cross-sections >6mm qualify as bars; thinner may shift to profiles
