Import Tips
• Document nylon's flexibility specs (e.g
• flexural modulus) to justify orthopedic classification over rigid plastics
• Pair with heat-cure processing instructions for customs to confirm end-use in professional denture labs
• Avoid bulk packaging over 100 units per box, which may trigger 'parts of general use' scrutiny under note exclusions
