Import Tips
• Include weld procedure specifications (WPS) and NDT test reports to prove structural integrity for rolling mill applications
• Label clearly as 'weldment for rolling mill of HTS 8455' to prevent misclassification as general fabricated metal products
• Check for anti-dumping duties on aluminum products from certain origins before importing
