Import Tips
• UHP electrodes require manufacturer test reports showing transverse strength >10MPa and CTE <1.5
• Avoid HTS 8545.90 classification by proving >95% carbon content and furnace-specific machining
• Large diameter electrodes (>500mm) need special handling declarations and may qualify for duty drawback programs
