Import Tips
• Verify the gun is manual-operated and primarily for caulking to avoid reclassification as pneumatic tools under 8467
• Include material composition certificates confirming iron/steel construction for Chapter 82 eligibility
• Label as 'hand tool - caulking gun' to prevent customs delays; watch for undervaluation pitfalls
