Importers Keep Paying China Duties
Importers of malleable iron pipe fittings from China will continue to pay antidumping duties because the U.S. International Trade Commission decided on June 4, 2025 to keep the existing duty order in place. That means businesses that import these fittings from China still face the extra taxes now and in the near future.
U.S. Manufacturers Protected From Injury
U.S. manufacturers of malleable iron pipe fittings are protected because the Commission found on June 4, 2025 that removing the antidumping duty order would likely cause material injury to the U.S. industry. The decision keeps the order in place to protect domestic producers now and going forward.
