Import Tips
• Verify pressure rating certification exceeds 850 kPa to qualify under this subheading; test reports may be required by CBP
• Ensure copper alloy composition meets 'of copper' criteria (over 50% copper) with material test certificates
• Avoid misclassification as plumbing fixtures by emphasizing industrial pipe use, not household installation
