The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of brake drums from China and Turkey that are allegedly sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of China and Turkey.
Chair Amy A. Karpel and Commissioners David S. Johanson, Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, and Jason E. Kearns voted in the affirmative.
As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, the U.S. Department of Commerce will continue its investigations of imports of brake drums from China and Turkey, with its preliminary antidumping duty determinations due on or about November 27, 2024 and its preliminary countervailing duty determinations on September 13, 2024.
The Commission’s public report Brake Drums from China and Turkey, (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-729-730 and 731-TA-1698-1699 (Preliminary), USITC Publication 5532, August 2024) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigation.
The report will be available by September 12, 2024; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library.
