| The Switch is On(tm) Alloy Substitution Our AL 201HP(tm) alloy was adapted by a major appliance manufacturer who switched from T304. AL 201HP alloy has also been widely accepted for food equipment applications. Our lean duplex AL 2003(tm) stainless alloy is being offered as a substitute for T316L due to its better corrosion resistance, higher strength, and competitive price.

| Electrical Energy - What's Next? Leading supplier of reactor-grade zirconium and hafnium products for nuclear power plant fuel cladding and structural components. Leading supplier of corrosion resistant alloys for power plant water systems. |
| New Products - What's Next? This new and innovative composite titanium and zirconium tubing allows fertilizer processors and other chemical manufacturers to minimize the effects of corrosion and erosion. A new nickel-based superalloy for gas turbines used in aerospace and power generation applications offers turbine manufacturers better fuel efficiency from higher operating temperatures than the standard 718 alloy. Our HardCore technology patented dual carbide structure with a tough resilient core and a hard durable shell offers four times the tool life at twice the production speed. Our tungsten products business is beginning to be recognized as a technology leader in products to machine difficult-to-machine metals, such as titanium and superalloys.
