Import Tips
• Include CAD drawings showing compatibility with specific transformer dimensions and chassis designs
• Surface treatment specifications (zinc plating, passivation) must be documented for corrosion resistance claims
• Avoid common error of declaring as general hardware; specificity to transformer mounting is key
