TCE continues to invest in upgrading our equipment and processes to insure our customers receive the finest extrusions available in the market today. As a result of focus on improving the grain structure of our 6061 alloy rod and bar products, TCE invested over $50,000 in upgrading our water quench system which now includes higher water pressure and additional nozzles to cool the extrusions more quickly, resulting in better mechanical properties of our hard alloy products.
