Import Tips
• Label pressure vessel certification (ASME/DOT) clearly; unapproved vessels trigger safety inspections and delays
• Declare abrasive media type in entry docs to prevent misclassification as a general sprayer
• Avoid common pitfall of incomplete blast hose kits leading to parts classification under 8424.90
