SUMMARY: In response to a request from
an interested party, the Department of
Commerce initiated a changed
circumstances review of the
antidumping duty order on diamond
sawblades and parts thereof from the
People’s Republic of China (PRC). We
preliminarily determine that Husqvarna
(Hebei) Co., Ltd. is the successor-ininterest to Hebei Husqvarna Jikai
Diamond Tools Co., Ltd.

Background
The Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the antidumping
duty order on diamond sawblades and
parts thereof from the PRC on November
4, 2009.1 On October 1, 2012,
Husqvarna (Hebei) Co., Ltd. (Hebei)
filed a request for a changed

circumstances review. In its request,
Hebei informed the Department that
Hebei Husqvarna Jikai Diamond Tools
Co., Ltd. (Jikai) 2 changed its name to
Hebei on April 27, 2012, and it
requested that the Department find
Hebei to be the successor-in-interest to
Jikai. On January 8, 2013, the
Department published the notice of
initiation of this review.3
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the order are
all finished circular sawblades, whether
slotted or not, with a working part that
is comprised of a diamond segment or
segments, and parts thereof, regardless
of specification or size, except as
specifically excluded below. Within the
scope of the order are semifinished
diamond sawblades, including diamond
sawblade cores and diamond sawblade
segments. Diamond sawblade cores are
circular steel plates, whether or not
attached to non-steel plates, with slots.
Diamond sawblade cores are
manufactured principally, but not
exclusively, from alloy steel. A diamond
sawblade segment consists of a mixture
of diamonds (whether natural or
synthetic, and regardless of the quantity
of diamonds) and metal powders
(including, but not limited to, iron,
cobalt, nickel, tungsten carbide) that are
formed together into a solid shape (from
generally, but not limited to, a heating
and pressing process).
Sawblades with diamonds directly
attached to the core with a resin or
electroplated bond, which thereby do
not contain a diamond segment, are not
included within the scope of the order.
Diamond sawblades and/or sawblade
cores with a thickness of less than 0.025
inches, or with a thickness greater than
1.1 inches, are excluded from the scope
of the order. Circular steel plates that
have a cutting edge of non-diamond
material, such as external teeth that
protrude from the outer diameter of the
plate, whether or not finished, are
excluded from the scope of the order.
2 In a previous changed circumstances review, the
Department determined that Hebei Husqvarna Jikai
Diamond Tools Co., Ltd., is not the successor-ininterest to Hebei Jikai Industrial Group Co., Ltd.,
and that Hebei Husqvarna Jikai Diamond Tools Co.,
Ltd., is a new entity. See Diamond Sawblades and
Parts Thereof From the People’s Republic of China:

Diamond sawblade cores with a
Rockwell C hardness of less than 25 are
excluded from the scope of the order.
Diamond sawblades and/or diamond
segment(s) with diamonds that
predominantly have a mesh size number
greater than 240 (such as 250 or 260) are
excluded from the scope of the order.
Merchandise subject to the order is
typically imported under heading
8202.39.00.00 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
When packaged together as a set for
retail sale with an item that is separately
classified under headings 8202 to 8205
of the HTSUS, diamond sawblades or
parts thereof may be imported under
heading 8206.00.00.00 of the HTSUS.
On October 11, 2011, the Department
included the 6804.21.00.00 HTSUS
classification number to the customs
case reference file, pursuant to a request
by U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP).4
The tariff classification is provided for
convenience and customs purposes;
however, the written description of the
scope of the order is dispositive.
Preliminary Results of Changed
Circumstances Review
In making a successor-in-interest
determination, the Department
examines several factors including, but
not limited to, changes in management,
production facilities, supplier
relationships, and customer base.5
While no single factor or combination of
these factors will necessarily provide a
dispositive indication of a successor-ininterest relationship, the Department
will generally consider the new
company to be the successor to the
previous company if the new company’s
operations are similar to those of its
predecessor.6 Thus, if the evidence
demonstrates that, with respect to the
production and sales of the subject
merchandise, the new company
operates as the same business entity as
the former company, the Department
will accord the new company the same
