Import Tips
• Confirm brass is copper-based (>58% copper per UNS standards) with alloy certification to stay in copper heading
• Document end-use as pipe/boiler appliance, not semiconductor equipment, to avoid Chapter 84/90 reclassification
• Watch for over-declaration of pressure rating; CBP may require proof, leading to delays if unsubstantiated
