U.S. initiates antidumping probes
On September 8, 2026, the U.S. Department of Commerce opened less‑than‑fair‑value (antidumping) investigations into certain linear hydraulic cylinders and parts from Canada, China, India, the Republic of Korea, and Mexico. If you import, export, or manufacture these cylinders or parts, your business is now subject to an official Commerce investigation that will proceed toward preliminary determinations.
Estimated dumping margin ranges listed
The notice lists estimated dumping margin ranges used to justify initiation: Canada 248.33% to 744.85%; China (Malaysia surrogate) 149.86% to 394.07%, (Mexico surrogate) 103.05% to 197.07%, (Türkiye surrogate) 299.38% to 440.48%; India 85.31% to 370.67%; Korea 73.09% to 158.74%; Mexico 56.79% to 157.12%. These percentage ranges appear in Commerce's initiation analysis.
Which cylinders and parts are covered
The investigations cover linear acting hydraulic cylinders with steel barrels that have a bore (inner diameter) of 25.4 mm (1 inch) or more and a return (retracted) length of 101.6 mm (4 inches) or more, plus listed designs (e.g., tie‑rod, welded body, telescopic, plunger, rodless) and specified components: steel barrels, steel piston rods, and any part attached to or shipped with a covered barrel or piston rod. If your product matches these physical descriptions, it falls within the written scope.
Respondent selection, data release, and filing deadlines
Commerce released U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) import data under administrative protective order on September 8, 2026, and said interested parties have three business days from the notice publication to comment on that data or respondent selection. For China, Commerce will issue quantity‑and‑value (Q&V) questionnaires and set a deadline of 5:00 p.m. ET on September 22, 2026 for Chinese producers/exporters to submit Q&V responses; separate‑rate applications for Chinese firms are due 21 days after the initiation notice publication. These steps determine which companies Commerce may examine individually.
