Import Tips
• Verify material certification to confirm 100% steel composition, as non-steel parts may shift classification
• Include pressure ratings and flow coefficients in documentation to prove hand-operated globe design
• Avoid misclassification as gate valves by providing cutaway diagrams showing internal globe disc mechanism
