Import Tips
• Label with exact ATB (alternate top bevel) or FTG (full top grind) tooth pattern; mismatches lead to audits
• Include arbor size and kerf width in invoices; pitfall is confusing with band saw blades under 8202.21
• Check for FSC certification if wood-related claims; use HTS correctly vs. parts in 8202.91
