SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On May 14, 2026, Commerce published in the Federal Register the Preliminary Results of this administrative review and invited interested parties to comment.[1] No interested party submitted comments on the Preliminary Results. Because Commerce received no comments on the Preliminary Results, we have not modified our analysis, and no decision memorandum accompanies this notice. We are, hereby, adopting the Preliminary Results as the final results of this review. Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

Scope of the Order

The product covered by this Order is certain cold-drawn mechanical tubing of carbon and alloy steel (cold-drawn mechanical tubing) from Italy. For a complete description of the scope, see the Preliminary Results.[2]

Use of Adverse Facts Available

As discussed in the Preliminary Results, we assigned Dalmine a weighted-average dumping margin based entirely on facts available with adverse inferences (AFA), pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act.[3] There is no new information on the record that would cause us to revisit our decision in the Preliminary Results. Accordingly, for these final results, we continue to find that the application of AFA pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act is warranted with respect to Dalmine.

Final Results of the Administrative Review

We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period June 1, 2024, through May 31, 2025:

Exporter/producer Weighted-average dumping margin (percent)
Dalmine S.p.A 68.95

Disclosure

Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations of the final results of an administrative review within five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of publication of the notice of the final results in the Federal Register , in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because we made no changes from the Preliminary Results, there are no calculations to disclose.

Assessment Rates

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of this review. Commerce will instruct CBP to apply an ad valorem assessment rate of 68.95 percent to all entries of subject merchandise during the POR from Dalmine.

Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this review in the Federal Register . If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired ( i.e., within 90 days of publication).

Cash Deposit Requirements

The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of cold-drawn mechanical tubing from Italy entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final results as provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for Dalmine will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in these final results of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by producers or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a prior completed segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published in the completed segment for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, or the less-than-fair-value investigation, but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the cash deposit rate established for the most recently completed segment for the producer of the subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers and exporters will continue to be the all-others rate ( i.e., 47.87 percent ad valorem ).[4] These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during the POR. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Order (APO)

This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to an APO of their responsibility concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely notification of the return, or destruction, of APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective order, is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a violation subject to sanction. ( printed page 58657)

Notification to Interested Parties

We are issuing and publishing these final results in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).

Dated: September 9, 2026.
