Import Tips
• Label fittings clearly as 'nickel alloy' to distinguish from steel; provide alloy grade like Inconel 625
• Ensure country of melt and pour documentation for Section 232 tariff exemptions
• Avoid common pitfall of undervaluing based on weight—use transaction value including engineering specs
