Import Tips
• Verify copper alloy composition meets HTS copper definition (over 97% copper) with material test reports to avoid reclassification
• Include pressure rating certification under 850 kPa and confirm hand-operated mechanism in technical specs for smooth clearance
• Label as 'supply stop' not 'valve' to prevent confusion with industrial valves; watch for anti-dumping duties on brass fittings
