Import Tips

Submit OEM certification linking blades to steam turbine models used in semiconductor grinders

Comply with dimensional tolerance declarations (e.g

micron-level flatness specs) for classification support

Avoid reclassification by separating from lapping/polishing consumables on import manifests
