U.S. Keeps Duties on Aluminum Wire and Cable From China Estimated reading time: 1–7 minutes On June 9, 2025, the United States International Trade Commission (USITC) made a key decision in its review of duties on aluminum wire and cable from China. The USITC reviewed two orders: a countervailing duty order and an antidumping duty order on aluminum wire and cable from China. These orders put extra charges on the imports from China to prevent unfair trade. The Commission looked at all of the information collected during the review. It decided, under the Tariff Act of 1930, that ending these orders would probably cause harm to companies in the United States. The harm could happen soon if the orders are removed. The reviews started on November 1, 2024. On February 4, 2025, the Commission decided to do expedited, or faster, reviews. The reviews are called Investigation Nos. 701-TA-611 and 731-TA-1428. The full findings and views of the Commission are in USITC Publication 5635, published in June 2025, under the name “Aluminum Wire and Cable from China: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-611 and 731-TA-1428 (Review).” The official order keeping the duties in place was issued by Lisa Barton, Secretary to the Commission. The notice was published in the Federal Register on June 13, 2025. Legal Disclaimer This article includes content collected from the Federal Register (federalregister.gov).

US Investigates Imports of Overhead Door Counterbalance Torsion Springs from China and India Estimated reading time: 5–10 minutes The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) has announced the final phase scheduling of its investigation into imports of overhead door counterbalance torsion springs from China and India. This case looks at whether the U.S. industry is being harmed by these imports, which are thought to be sold at less-than-fair-value and subsidized. What Products Are Being Investigated? The products involved are helically-wound, overhead door counterbalance torsion steel springs. These springs usually have attached cones, plugs, or other fittings for mounting or making torque. The springs are used to lift and lower overhead doors, such as garage doors and warehouse doors. The springs covered must have: Coil inside diameter between 15.8 mm and 304.8 mm Wire diameter from 2.5 mm to 20.4 mm Length of at least 127 mm All wire types, shapes, and coatings are included. Springs with different winding orientations or end types are also included, as well as springs fitted with hardware like fasteners and cones. What Is Not Included? The following items are not under investigation: Leaf springs Disc springs Extension springs Compression springs Spiral springs Kits and Third-Country Processing If torsion springs and their fittings are shipped as part of overhead door kits, mounting kits, spring-operated or winder assemblies, they are included in the scope. If they undergo minor changes in another country before coming to the U.S., they are still covered. Background of the Investigation The investigation follows a petition filed on October 29, 2024, by three companies: IDC Group, Inc. (Minneapolis, Minnesota) Iowa Spring Manufacturing, Inc. (Adel, Iowa) Service Spring Corp. (Maumee, Ohio) The Department of Commerce found that these products from China and India may be subsidized and sold below fair value in the U.S. This led to the USITC starting its investigation as required by the Tariff Act of 1930. Important Dates and Procedures The prehearing staff report will be placed in the nonpublic record on August 7, 2025. The public hearing is set for August 21, 2025, starting at 9:30 a.m. Requests to appear at the hearing must be filed by August 15, 2025. Written testimony and presentation slides are due by noon on August 20, 2025. Prehearing briefs must be filed by August 14, 2025; posthearing briefs and public written statements by August 28, 2025. The Commission will share new information on September 9, 2025, allowing parties to comment by September 11, 2025. All official filings must be made electronically via the USITC’s Electronic Document Information System (EDIS). No paper filings will be accepted for now. Participation and Hearing Details Any party, including companies and consumer organizations, wishing to take part in the investigation must file an appearance. To get access to business proprietary information, parties must apply at least 21 days before the hearing. There are also specific rules for submitting hearing requests for remote testimony.

US Maintains Duties on Malleable Iron Pipe Fittings From China Estimated reading time: 3–5 minutes On June 4, 2025, the United States International Trade Commission (USITC) issued a determination about malleable iron pipe fittings from China. The USITC decided that ending the antidumping duty order on these products from China would likely cause harm again to U.S. industries. This decision was made under the Tariff Act of 1930. The purpose of the review was to see if taking away the duties would hurt the U.S. industry within a short amount of time. After looking at the official records, the Commission decided that removing the duties would probably lead to new problems for American businesses making these products. The review officially started on November 1, 2024. The Commission decided on February 4, 2025, to have an expedited review, meaning the process would move faster than usual. The notice of expedited review was published on March 7, 2025. All details about the decision are included in USITC Publication 5633, published in June 2025. The publication is titled “Malleable Iron Pipe Fittings from China: Investigation No. 731-TA-1021 (Fourth Review).” Lisa Barton, the Secretary to the Commission, issued the order. The details are available in the Federal Register, Volume 90, Number 110, published on June 10, 2025. The antidumping duty order will therefore remain in place to protect the U.S. industry.

U.S. International Trade Commission Adds Tao Motor as Respondent in Self-Balancing Vehicle Patent Case Estimated reading time: 3–5 minutes On June 4, 2025, the U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) officially decided not to review an initial determination made by the presiding administrative law judge. This decision grants a motion to amend a complaint by adding Zhejiang TaoTao Vehicles Co., Ltd. (Tao Motor) as a new respondent in an ongoing investigation. The investigation, known as No. 337-TA-1440, began on February 26, 2025. The complaint was filed by Razor USA LLC of Cerritos, California, and Shane Chen of Camas, Washington. These parties claim there are violations of Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930. They allege certain motorized self-balancing vehicles imported into the United States infringe on their patents. The patents in question are U.S. Patent No. RE46,964; U.S. Patent No. RE49,608; and U.S. Patent No. D739,906. The complaint states that an industry related to these patents exists or is being established in the United States, as required by law. The Commission’s initial notice named five respondents: Golabs Inc. d/b/a Gotrax of Carrollton, Texas, Dongguan Saibotan Nengyuan Keji Co., Ltd. d/b/a “Gyroor US,” Guangdong, China, Gyroor Technology (CHINA) Co., Ltd. d/b/a Gyroor, Guangdong, China, Shenzhen Chitado Technology Co., Ltd. d/b/a Gyroor, Guangdong, China, Unicorn Network, LLC. d/b/a Sisigad of Dover, Delaware. Respondent Sisigad was previously found in default on April 16, 2025. This was not reviewed by the Commission. On April 30, 2025, the complainants asked to amend the complaint. They wanted to add Tao Motor of Lishui City, China, as a new respondent. They stated there was good cause, and that doing so would not harm any party or affect public interest. On May 13, 2025, the administrative law judge found good cause to add Tao Motor as a respondent. The judge confirmed adding Tao Motor would not cause harm to other parties or the public interest. No petitions to review this decision were filed. The Commission voted on June 3, 2025, to leave the decision unchanged. Tao Motor is now officially added as a respondent in the ongoing patent case. The authority for this action comes from Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended. It also follows the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure, 19 CFR part 210. This decision was announced by Lisa Barton, Secretary to the Commission. The official document is Federal Register No. 2025-10393.

U.S. International Trade Commission Moves Forward on Exercise Equipment Patent Investigation Estimated reading time: 7–10 minutes The U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) announced it will not review a recent initial determination. This decision comes from Investigation No. 337-TA-1419. The case is about claims by Balanced Body, Inc. of Sacramento, California. Balanced Body says some companies imported exercise equipment and subassemblies that infringe on their patents. Who is Involved? Guangzhou Oasis, LLC, also known as trysauna.com, from Boulder, Colorado Shandong Tmax Machinery Technology Co., Ltd., China Shandong VOG Sports Products Co., Ltd., China Dezhou Bodi Fitness Equipment Co., Ltd., China Suzhou Selfcipline Sports Goods Co., Ltd., China A company called Ciga Pilates from Hong Kong was also named at first. The complaint against Ciga Pilates was later withdrawn. What Patents Are Claimed? Balanced Body claims some of these companies violated the Tariff Act of 1930. The patents involved are: Claims 1-15, 19-21, and 23-26 from U.S. Patent No. 8,721,511 The claim of U.S. Patent No. D659,205 The claim of U.S. Patent No. D659,208 Later, the investigation for some patent claims was ended. Only claim 1 and claim 19 of the ‘511 patent and the claims of the D’205 and D’208 patents remain. Investigation Status On April 9, 2025, five companies were found in default (not defending themselves). On April 16, 2025, some patent claims were removed from the investigation. Balanced Body asked for two types of orders: A General Exclusion Order (GEO), which would stop all imports of infringing products, from anyone. A Limited Exclusion Order (LEO), which would stop just those companies from importing. They also asked for a 100% bond on the value of any products imported during a Presidential review period. ALJ and Commission Decisions An Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) issued a ruling on April 30, 2025. The ALJ granted some of Balanced Body’s motion. The ALJ found that VOG Sports, Dezhou, and Selfcipline violated claim 1 of the ‘511 patent and the D’208 patent. The ALJ said the domestic industry requirement was met. The ALJ also said there was strong evidence to support these findings. The ALJ said Balanced Body should get a General Exclusion Order (GEO) for claim 1 of the ‘511 patent and the D’208 patent, and a 100% bond. But, this relief was seen as premature because some issues were still open. On May 9, 2025, Balanced Body withdrew its request for a GEO on some other patent claims. This made the investigation ready to move forward to the “remedy phase.” On May 12, 2025, the ALJ supported issuing a GEO for claim 1 of the ‘511 patent and the D’208 patent, along with a 100% bond. No company requested a review of the ALJ’s initial determination. The Commission voted on May 30, 2025, not to review the decision. Next Steps: Seeking Input The Commission may use its authority to issue orders that: Exclude the products from the U.S. Order companies to stop unfair acts in importing and selling the products. The USITC is asking parties and the public to send written comments. They want to know: What remedies should be ordered How any remedy could affect the public health and welfare How it could affect U.S. producers, consumers, and competition What the bond amount should be Balanced Body must provide: The remedy they want Draft remedial orders When the patents expire Importer details Product category information The deadline for submissions is June 13, 2025. Replies are due June 20, 2025. Extra details on submitting documents are included in the notice. Bond and Presidential Review If a remedy is put in place, a 60-day Presidential review follows. During this time, the products can still enter the U.S., but only under a set bond. Confidential Information Parties can ask for confidential treatment of their submissions. Redacted versions must be filed for public access. Authority The Commission’s authority is based on Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 and USITC rules.

U.S. International Trade Commission Updates Investigation into Glow Fish Tape and Safety Helmet Systems Estimated reading time: 3–5 minutes The U.S. International Trade Commission has made a new announcement about an ongoing investigation. This investigation is called Investigation No. 337-TA-1442. It concerns certain glow fish tape systems, safety helmet systems, and their parts. The Commission said it will not review an important decision made by the Chief Administrative Law Judge (CALJ). This decision allowed Klein Tools, Inc., from Lincolnshire, Illinois, to make changes to its complaint. Now, Klein Tools can add new accusations about U.S. Patent No. 12,268,265 (the ‘265 patent). These new claims say that there is infringement of claims 1-4 of the ‘265 patent. This investigation first began on March 19, 2025. Klein Tools filed the complaint, saying that Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation, based in Brookfield, Wisconsin, was bringing products into the United States, or selling products in the United States, that violated several patents. The original complaint listed U.S. Patent Nos. 11,452,327; 11,713,209; and 12,187,573. Now, the complaint also includes the ‘265 patent, claims 1-4. The Commission’s notice said that there is a domestic industry connected to the products in question. The Office of Unfair Import Investigations is not taking part in this case. The CALJ gave permission to amend the complaint on May 1, 2025. The decision is called Order No. 6. Nobody asked for a review of this decision. The Commission officially stated that it will not review the CALJ’s decision. The investigation is now updated to include the new allegations concerning the ‘265 patent against Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation. The Commission made this determination on May 30, 2025. The legal authority for this decision comes from section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 and Part 210 of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure. This announcement was issued by Lisa Barton, Secretary to the Commission, on May 30, 2025. Legal Disclaimer This article includes content collected from the Federal Register (federalregister.gov).

U.S. Trade Commission Issues Orders in Thyroid Drug Case Estimated reading time: 5 minutes On June 4, 2025, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) announced the results of Investigation No. 337-TA-1352. The investigation was over certain selective thyroid hormone receptor-beta agonists and related products. The ITC found that four companies in China broke Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930. These companies are Ascletis Pharma Inc., Ascletis Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd., Ascletis Bioscience Co., Ltd., and Gannex Pharma Co., Ltd. These four companies are called “Corporate Respondents” in the case. The ITC said these companies got and used trade secrets that belonged to Viking Therapeutics, Inc., which is based in San Diego, California. Viking was the “Complainant.” Viking said these companies used trade secrets to make and sell certain thyroid-related drugs in the United States. The ITC ordered a seven-year limited exclusion order (LEO) against the Corporate Respondents. That means the drugs and products involved cannot be brought into the United States by these companies for seven years, unless they have a license. The ITC also issued cease and desist orders (CDO) to each of the four companies. This means they must stop all actions that break the law regarding these products. The case started on February 9, 2023. The ITC looked into whether the companies’ actions hurt or stopped a U.S. company from growing. There was a hearing from November 13 to 16, 2023. The main judge, called the Chief Administrative Law Judge (Chief ALJ), found that the companies broke the law and said sanctions were needed. Sanctions mean punishment or penalties. The ITC also looked at the role of Dr. Jinzi Jason Wu, who works for the Corporate Respondents. The ITC decided not to find Dr. Wu personally at fault. Sanctions against Dr. Wu were dropped. Sanctions against the companies and their former lawyers, Rimon PC, were upheld. The ITC also set a bond during a review period. This bond is one hundred percent of the value of any covered items imported during the Presidential review. This means if the companies try to bring in these products during the review, they must pay a bond worth the product’s total value. No other public comments were received about this case. The ITC said the public interest does not stop them from giving these orders. The investigation is now finished. The orders and decisions were sent to the President and the United States Trade Representative on the same day they were made. The ITC voted on this decision on May 29, 2025. The legal authority for these actions comes from Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 and the Commission’s own rules. Lisa Barton, Secretary to the Commission, recorded this action.

The review will decide if removing these trade duties would likely continue or cause new harm to American industry. The review began on June 2, 2025. Parties interested in this case must send their responses to the Commission by July 2, 2025. People can leave comments about the responses by August 13, 2025. All filings must be electronic, using the Commission’s Electronic Document Information System (EDIS). The USITC is following section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930 for this review. Earlier, the Department of Commerce issued these duty orders on November 24, 2008. The duties were continued in January 2015 and July 2020 after earlier five-year reviews. This new review checks if revoking these orders would hurt U.S. producers of lightweight thermal paper in the near future. “Subject Merchandise” in this review means lightweight thermal paper from China. The “Domestic Like Product” is thermal paper made in the U.S., while the “Domestic Industry” covers all U.S. companies making this kind of paper. “Importers” bring this paper into the U.S. from China. Anyone wishing to participate must file an entry of appearance within 21 days after the notice date. The rules also explain how business confidential information will be handled, who may access it, and how the information must be certified. Responses to the USITC must include detailed information. Each company or group responding should provide: Name, address, and contact information. Whether they are an “interested party” like a U.S. producer, importer, exporter, or association. Willingness to give information. What effects would follow if the duties were revoked. Lists of U.S. producers, importers, and Chinese producers and exporters. Major purchasers in the U.S. Price sources for these products. U.S. producers need to give information about their 2024 production, sales, and financial results. U.S. importers and Chinese exporters must also give trade and sales data for 2024. The USITC wants to know about any big changes in how and where this paper is made and sold after 2018, and if any big changes are likely soon. Anyone who cannot provide the requested information must notify the Commission right away and explain why. Additional rules are given about who may participate, disclosures, certification, how to file electronically, and accuracy of information, as well as time limits. This proceeding is under Title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930 and Sec. 207.61 of the Commission’s rules. This notice was issued by Lisa Barton, Secretary to the Commission, on May 27, 2025.

U.S. Sets Final Phase Schedule for Sol Gel Alumina-Based Ceramic Abrasive Grains Trade Investigations Estimated reading time: 3–5 minutes Summary of the Investigations The U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) has announced the final phase schedule for antidumping and countervailing duty investigations of sol gel alumina-based ceramic abrasive grains from China. The investigations are to decide if the U.S. industry is hurt, threatened, or slowed because of imports of these grains from China. The Department of Commerce has made a preliminary finding that Chinese producers and exporters get subsidies for these grains. These grains fall under subheading 2818.10.20 in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States. Scope of the Investigations The subject of the investigations is “sol gel alumina-based ceramic abrasive grains.” They must have at least 94% aluminum oxide (Al2O3). These grains can have other compounds, like titanium dioxide, silicon dioxide, calcium oxide, sodium superoxide, ferric oxide, magnesium oxide, lanthanum oxide, and more. Grain sizes range from 0.85 mm to 0.0395 mm, equal to ANSI grit sizes from 20 to 280. The grains come in shapes like angular, sharp, blocky, splintery, round stripped, triangular, or extruded rods or stars. These grains have special crystal structures, with high hardness (16-22 gigapascals by the Vickers Diamond Indent Method), a high melting point (2050°C), and crystalline sizes from 0.05 to 30 micrometers. Their colors can be blue, white, white-translucent, or off-white opaque. The scope includes the grains themselves, whether or not they are in other articles, such as abrasive papers, grinding wheels, cylinders, or discs. Only the sol gel alumina-based ceramic abrasive grains part is covered when in a product. Background and Legal Process The investigations were requested by Saint-Gobain Ceramics & Plastics, Inc. from Malvern, Pennsylvania, on November 25, 2024.

U.S. Moves Forward with Trade Investigations on Molded Fiber Products from China and Vietnam Estimated reading time: 5–7 minutes On May 30, 2025, the United States International Trade Commission (USITC) announced important steps in its investigations on imports of thermoformed molded fiber products (TMFPs) from China and Vietnam. The USITC is working to decide if the U.S. industry is being harmed by these imported products. The investigations will look at whether TMFPs from China and Vietnam are being sold in the United States at below fair value and if they are being subsidized by their governments. The TMFPs include items like plates, bowls, trays, lids, food packaging, and other product packaging. These products are made from cellulose fibers and formed using heated molds. TMFPs can be any shape, size, color, or design. They can be made from any type of fiber, including recycled or natural fiber sources such as wood or agricultural by-products. They may also have extra treatments or features, like being heat resistant, water-resistant, or having special closures or designs. Some products are not included in this investigation. For example, products covered by other trade orders on paper plates from China, Thailand, and Vietnam are excluded. TMFPs used only as packaging for other products, such as molded fiber around a phone, are also excluded from this case. These investigations began after petitions were filed on October 8, 2024, by the American Molded Fiber Coalition, which includes two companies and a trade union. The final phase of the investigations is scheduled under the Tariff Act of 1930. The USITC and the Department of Commerce will review if TMFPs from the two countries are causing material injury to the U.S. market. The USITC has provided a detailed timeline: The prehearing staff report will be issued on September 11, 2025, with a public version to follow. The hearing will begin at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, September 25, 2025. Requests to appear at the hearing must be filed by September 19, 2025.

Anyone wanting to take part in these investigations, including companies who use TMFPs or groups who represent buyers, must file an entry of appearance with the USITC. Electronic filing is required, and no paper filings will be accepted for now. Business proprietary information (BPI) will be given to approved applicants under an administrative protective order. The USITC has rules for making these filings and handling confidential information. All parties involved must serve documents on one another and submit a certificate of service. Submissions that do not follow these rules will not be accepted. The USITC is conducting these investigations under Title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930.
