Import Tips
• Provide chemical analysis showing tin weight % exceeds zinc and other elements except allowable zinc <10%
• Measure coil thickness precisely as customs may gauge samples; >5mm required for this subheading
• Label as 'machinery parts material' if pre-cut to avoid essential character shift
