Import Tips

• Verify machine specifications confirm honing function for metal/cermets to avoid reclassification under general grinding tools

• Include detailed technical manuals and end-use certificates to prove semiconductor or industrial metal processing application

• Ensure proper labeling of abrasive components; separate shipments of stones may classify under Chapter 68
