Import Tips & Compliance

Verify nickel purity exceeds 99% with mill test certificates to confirm non-alloyed status

Ensure wire is hot-rolled or extruded, not cold-drawn, via manufacturer specs to match 'not cold-formed' criterion

Declare exact diameter and spool weight accurately; common pitfall is undervaluing for bulk spools
