Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that Italian makers of forged steel fluid end blocks got unfair financial help during 2023.

Preliminary Duties on Italian Blocks
The Commerce Department preliminarily found that producers and exporters of forged steel fluid end blocks from Italy received countervailable subsidies during the period January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023. That finding could lead to extra import taxes (countervailing duties) on those Italian-made fluid end blocks, which may raise costs for U.S. importers and businesses that buy these parts.
