Import Tips
• Submit chemical analysis reports proving brass alloy compliance to prevent disputes over base metal classification
• Declare inner diameter and wall thickness accurately, as specs affect tariff value
• Avoid common pitfall of mislabeling as copper-nickel if Ni content nears 5% threshold
