Import Tips
• Provide Rockwell hardness test results (typically 58-65 HRC) and groove geometry specs to confirm ball bearing design
• For semiconductor uses like crystal grinders, note cleanroom compatibility but classify as bearing part unless machine-integrated
• Avoid misdeclaration as 'forgings'; finished machined races must have invoice descriptions specifying 'for ball bearings'
