On July 20, 2026, Insteel Wire Products Company, Sumiden Wire Products Corporation, and Wire Mesh Corp. (collectively, the petitioners) submitted a rebuttal brief.[3]
The deadline for these final results is now October 20, 2026. For a complete description of the events that occurred since the

Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs are listed in the appendix to this notice and addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on comments received from interested parties regarding our
Preliminary Results,
we made no changes to the weighted-average dumping margin calculations for TYCSA.[6]
Final Results of Review
For these final results, we determine the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period June 1, 2024, through May 30, 2025:

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce will disclose to the parties in a proceeding the calculations performed in connection with the final results within five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register
, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because Commerce made no changes to the
Preliminary Results
calculations, there are no new calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), 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.
We calculated importer-specific
ad valorem
antidumping duty assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value of those sales, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). Where an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or
de minimis
(
i.e.,
less than 0.5 percent), we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. The final results of this administrative review shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by the final results of this review and for future deposits of estimated duties, where applicable.[7]
Commerce's “automatic assessment” practice will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by TYCSA for which it did not know that the merchandise it sold to an intermediary (
e.g.,
a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation (
i.e.,
14.75 percent),[8]
if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.[9]
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 the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for TYCSA will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin that is established in the final results of this review; (2) for previously investigated or reviewed companies not covered by this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recently completed segment of this proceeding in which the company participated; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the LTFV investigation, but the producer is, 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 or exporters will continue to be 14.75 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.[10]
These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
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), which continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding. Timely written notification of return/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 sanctionable violation.
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 duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1), 751(a)(3), and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: October 20, 2026.
