Import Tips
• Label with material composition (e.g
• bronze alloy) and agricultural end-use in commercial docs
• Avoid bulk packaging that suggests industrial sets; declare as individual replacement parts
• Test for load capacity certification if challenged on 'plain bearing' vs machined bushing distinction
