Import Tips
• Provide material test reports (MTRs) showing nickel-copper composition to Customs for proper alloy verification
• Label shipments clearly as 'hot-drawn wire' to distinguish from cold-drawn competitors
• Watch for misclassification as copper wire if copper content appears dominant on superficial inspection
