Import Tips

• Include pressure/temperature ratings and compatibility specs to prove it's not general rubber sheeting

• Test for material durometer and reinforcement type; mismatches lead to Chapter 40 rubber goods classification

• Bundle with OEM part numbers from valve manufacturers like Fisher or Masoneilan for easier CBP review
