Import Tips
• Verify graphite purity and electrical conductivity certifications to confirm classification under 8545 as electrical-use carbon articles
• Include machining application end-use documentation to avoid reclassification as general graphite products under 6814
• Check for metal plating or impregnation, as it may affect duty rates or require additional material declarations
