US International Trade Commission Makes Final Determination on Anti-Dumping and Countervailing Duty Industry Injury for High Chromium Cast Iron Grinding Balls

Published: May 30, 2025 15:46

On May 22, 2025, the US International Trade Commission (ITC) voted to issue an affirmative final determination on industry injury in the antidumping and countervailing duty investigations of high chrome cast iron grinding media imported from India, concluding that the products alleged to be dumped and subsidized caused material injury or a threat of material injury to the domestic industry in the US. Based on the ITC's affirmative final determination, the US Department of Commerce will issue antidumping and countervailing duty orders on the products in question from India. This case primarily involves products classified under US HS code 7325.91.0000.

On May 16, 2024, the US Department of Commerce initiated antidumping and countervailing duty investigations on high chrome cast iron grinding media imported from India. On April 22, 2025, the US Department of Commerce issued final antidumping and countervailing duty determinations on high chrome cast iron grinding media imported from India.

Before the holiday, the black chain is unlikely to see a trend-driven market [SMM Steel Industry Chain Weekly Report].
This week, ferrous metals were in the doldrums, with coking coal and coke staging a mid-week rise. At the beginning of the week, financial markets experienced sharp fluctuations, dragging down sentiment in the ferrous chain and leading to a pullback in futures. Mid-week, Indonesia's cut to coke production quotas drove coking coal and coke futures to lead the gains, though the impact was more pronounced on thermal coal, while coking coal's rise was largely sentiment-driven and short-lived. In the latter part of the week, finished products continued their seasonal inventory buildup, and support from the raw material side weakened, causing the entire ferrous chain to pull back. In the spot market, with the Chinese New Year holiday approaching, purchasing activity slowed down further, with end-users only making limited, as-needed purchases at low prices.
