Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'unwrought lead alloy' and include spectrographic analysis for antimony verification
• Comply with TSCA import certification for lead-bearing materials entering the US
• Monitor for tin contamination; if tin exceeds antimony, reclassify under different alloy subheading
