Import Tips
• Verify material composition (e.g
• steel alloy) and provide engineering drawings to confirm classification as 'other gearing' not qualifying for specific exclusions
• Include detailed invoices specifying gear module, pitch, and application to avoid misclassification as parts of specific machines
• Ensure compliance with ASME standards for gear tolerances to prevent customs holds on quality grounds
