Tungsten Shot from China Retards U.S. Industry, Says USITC

The United States International Trade Commission (Commission or USITC) today determined that the establishment of a U.S. industry is materially retarded by reason of imports of tungsten shot from China that the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) has determined are sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the government of China.

Chair Amy Karpel and Commissioners David S. Johanson and Jason E. Kearns voted in the affirmative. 

As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, Commerce will issue a countervailing duty order and an antidumping duty order on imports of this product from China. 

The Commission’s public report, Tungsten Shot from China (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-732 and 731-TA-1701 (Final), USITC Publication 5655, August 2025), will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.

The report will be available by September 17, 2025; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website.

Status of proceedings, links to relevant documents, and more information about these investigations can be found at the Commission’s Investigations Database System (IDS).
