Import Tips
• Supply laser sintering parameter sheets confirming powder suitability to distinguish from generic metal powders
• Certify oxygen content <200 ppm critical for AM applications; low oxygen prevents porosity issues
• Avoid 'filament' labeling which could trigger Chapter 85 classification for additive manufacturing materials
