Import Tips
• Provide evidence of use in monocrystalline semiconductor boule grinding to support classification
• Include vibration tolerance specs in invoices to demonstrate semiconductor-grade precision
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on precision bearings commonly incorporated in these assemblies
