Mexican Copper Pipes Dumped, Others Dropped from Review

## Summary

The U.S. Department of Commerce found that Nacional de Cobre sold copper pipes from Mexico at unfairly low prices between November 2024 and October 2025. They stopped reviewing two other companies, Golden Dragon and IUSA, after requests were withdrawn. This means some import duties might change soon, affecting businesses and prices in the copper pipe market.

## Abstract

The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily finds that Nacional de Cobre, S.A. de C.V. (Cobre) made sales of seamless refined copper pipe and tube (copper pipe and tube) from Mexico below normal value (NV) during the period of review (POR), November 1, 2024, through October 31, 2025. In addition, we are rescinding the review with respect to GD Affiliates S. De R. L. de C.V. (Golden Dragon) and IUSA, S.A. de C.V. (IUSA). Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results of review.
