Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide tonnage rating and stroke specifications in entry docs to distinguish from mechanical hammers
• Ensure labeling indicates hot forging use; mislabeling leads to audits under cold working provisions
• Budget for additional fees if machine exceeds container dimensions—common for hammers over 50 tons
