Import Tips & Compliance

• Include ANSI flange compatibility certification and pressure test reports from manufacturer

• Declare seating material (e.g

• PTFE or EPDM) separately if replaceable to avoid parts misclassification

• Watch for country-of-melt requirements on copper; provide smelter certificates for origin rules
