An antidumping order will not be issued as a result of U.S. International Trade Commission investigation.
The U.S. International Trade Commission has found that American manufacturers of tapered roller bearings — namely The Timken Co. of North Canton, Ohio — are not harmed by the same imports from South Korea.
The Commerce Department had previously determined that these imports were sold at less than fair value in the U.S. market during the preliminary stage of its antidumping investigation. According to Commerce, U.S. imports of the investigated South Korean tapered roller bearings in 2017 were valued at $67.4 million.
With the ITC’s negative final determination of domestic injury, the investigation will end and no antidumping order will be issued by Commerce.
