Import Tips
• Submit chemical composition analysis proving tin <3% and zinc predominance for brass/bronze classification per notes
• Use ISF filings early due to machinery part status; declare value accurately excluding installation costs
• Watch for reclassification risks if sold in sets with plastic wear strips—declare as individual components
