Import Tips
• Provide end-use statements specifying musical instrument application to distinguish from industrial magnets
• Ensure magnets are shipped demagnetized or properly packaged to prevent accidental activation during transit
• Label with residual magnetism values (typically 1.1-1.25 MGOe for Alnico II/IV) for customs verification
