Import Tips

Provide engineering drawings showing integration with 8445 spindles to confirm 'solely or principally' use criterion

Label with exact machine model compatibility (e.g

Rieter or Zinser frames) to facilitate customs verification

Avoid common pitfall of bulk packaging without part numbers, which triggers valuation disputes
