Import Tips

• Label with exact jaw length and insulation rating if for electrical use to comply with OSHA import requirements

• Avoid bulk packaging pitfalls; retail-packed pliers may require child-safety labeling under CPSIA

• Document as 'handtools, not power tool accessories' to prevent reclassification during examination
