US initiates antidumping probe on imports of stainless steel flanges from India and China

08 Sep 2017 Evaluate

Based on petitions filed by the Coalition of American Flange Producers and its individual members, Core Pipe Products and Maass Flange Corporation, the US government has initiated new anti-dumping and countervailing duty probe to determine whether imports of stainless steel flanges from India and China are being dumped in the US.

According to the US Commerce Department, it will act swiftly, while assuring a full and fair assessment of the facts, to ensure that everyone trades on a level playing field. In the anti-dumping investigation, the Commerce Department will determine whether imports of stainless steel flanges from China and India are being dumped in the US market at less than fair value. The department will determine whether Chinese and Indian producers of stainless steel flanges are receiving unfair government subsidies.

If the investigation by the Commerce Department determines that stainless steel flanges from China and India are being dumped into the US market and/or receiving unfair government subsidies, and if the US International Trade Commission (ITC) determines that dumped and/or unfairly subsidised US imports of stainless steel flanges from China and India are causing injury to the US industry, it will impose duties on those imports in the amount of dumping and/or unfair subsidisation found to exist. If the ITC’s determinations are negative, the investigations will be terminated.

The products covered by these investigations are certain forged stainless steel flanges, whether unfinished, semi-finished, or finished (certain forged stainless steel flanges). In 2016, imports of stainless steel flanges from China and India were valued at an estimated $16.3 million and $32.1 million, respectively.
