The United States International Trade Commission (ITC) determined that there is a reasonable indication that a US industry is materially injured by reason of imports of cold-drawn mechanical tubing from China, Germany, India, Italy, Korea, and Switzerland that are allegedly sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of China and India.
Chairman Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, Vice Chairman David S. Johanson, and Commissioners Irving A. Williamson, Meredith M. Broadbent, and F. Scott Kieff voted in the affirmative.
As a result of the ITC’s affirmative determinations, the US Department of Commerce will continue to conduct its antidumping and countervailing duty investigations on imports of this product from China, Germany, Italy, India, Korea, and Switzerland, with its preliminary countervailing duty determinations due on or about July 13, 2017, and its antidumping duty determinations due on or about September 26, 2017.
