Import Tips
• Verify aluminum purity via mill test certificates to confirm unalloyed status (≥99% Al, Fe+Si ≤0.1%)
• Provide detailed dimensional specs and end-use documentation to avoid misclassification as profiles
• Ensure seamless construction labeling, as welded tubes may shift to other subheadings
