Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Petitions Against Slag Pots from China

On December 31, 2024, new antidumping (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) petitions were filed against imports of slag pots from China. Slag pots are essential equipment used by steelmakers and other metallurgical industries to collect and transfer molten slag. The petition was filed by WHEMCO-Steel Castings, Inc., which claims to be the last remaining U.S. producer of slag pots.

This marked the final AD/CVD petition of 2024, capping off an unprecedentedly busy year for trade cases. A total of 27 new product petitions were filed, leading to 67 AD investigations and 49 CVD investigations. The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) has been inundated with these cases, recently announcing a 90-day extension for preliminary and final results in its administrative and new shipper reviews. This extension aims to allocate sufficient staffing for the numerous new AD/CVD investigations.
