Import Tips
• Document cone angle, pitch angle, and shaft configuration to distinguish from simple spur gears
• Provide hardness specifications (Rockwell C 58-62 typical) confirming precision transmission gearing
• Avoid importing with shafts attached to prevent classification as complete transmission shafts
