refrigerators, freezers, combined refrigeratorfreezers, other refrigerating or freezing equipment, 

cooking stoves, ranges, and ovens (‘‘certain kitchen 

appliance shelving and racks’’ or ‘‘the merchandise 

under investigation’’). Certain kitchen appliance 

shelving and racks are defined as shelving, baskets, 

racks (with or without extension slides, which are 

carbon or stainless steel hardware devices that are 

connected to shelving, baskets, or racks to enable 

sliding), side racks (which are welded wire support 

structures for oven racks that attach to the interior 

walls of an oven cavity that does not include 

support ribs as a design feature), and subframes 

(which are welded wire support structures that 

interface with formed support ribs inside an oven 

cavity to support oven rack assemblies utilizing 

extension slides) with the following dimensions: 

—Shelving and racks with dimensions ranging 

from 3 inches by 5 inches by 0.10 inch to 28 inches 

by 34 inches by 6 inches; or

inch to 16 inches by 30 inches by 4 inches; or 

—Subframes from 6 inches by 10 inches by 0.1 

inch to 28 inches by 34 inches by 6 inches. 

The merchandise under investigation is 

comprised of carbon or stainless steel wire ranging 

in thickness from 0.050 inch to 0.500 inch and may 

include sheet metal of either carbon or stainless 

steel ranging in thickness from 0.020 inch to 0.2 

inch. The merchandise under investigation may be 

coated or uncoated and may be formed and/or 

welded. Excluded from the scope of this 

investigation is shelving in which the support 

surface is glass. The merchandise subject to this 

investigation is currently classifiable in the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States 

(‘‘HTSUS’’) statistical reporting numbers 

8418.99.8050, 8418.99.8060, 7321.90.5000, 

7321.90.6090, and 8516.90.8000. Although the
