This presentation focused on studying the friction, wear rate, duration and
temperature effects of utilization of the Induratec process and compared it
to untreated and commonly used coated application of dry lubricant.

PRESS RELEASE Kinetitec Presents at the Materials Science +amp; Technology Conference

At
Thresher we subjected the finished material to multiple tests,
including dye penetration inspection and X-Ray examination of finished
blocks, and it is clear that the issues normally associated with metal
matrix materials are not present here.

The Induratec averaged 62% longer duration than a typical coated
application of dry lubricant. Finally this paper reported that the temperature was
lowered by an average of 40 % over untreated discs. In addition to the
benefits from the friction-reducing characteristics of the Induratec
process, it outlasts commonly applied coatings of dry lubricants, it does
not substantially change the dimensions so that it can be applied to
precision parts, and it is a cost-effective, environmentally friendly
solution for today's manufacturing environment.

Bowles, Research and
Development Manager , will present the Company's innovative surface
treatment process, Induratec, at the Materials Science & Technology
2005 (MS&T '05) in Pittsburg, PA.
The presentation is titled "New Surface Treatment Technology Demonstrating
Reduced Friction and Wear on Samples tested via Pin-On-Disc," and covered
Induratec's patent pending technology for reducing friction and wear
through the utilization of solid lubricants. MS&T '05
is organized by ASM International (the Materials Information Society ), the
American Ceramic Society, the American Welding Society, the Association for
Iron and Steel Technology, and the Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.

Use of
statistical analysis from data generated from the pin-on-disc tests was
utilized to compare the friction, duration, and wear rates for each
condition. It solves problems caused by the wear
of mechanisms where there is direct metal-to-metal contact which suffers
from lack of lubrication.

LOS ANGELES----Thresher Industries
LLC, a California-based producer of high-quality aluminum castings,
announced today the successful casting of an automotive aftermarket
"Hemi" engine block using proprietary materials developed and
manufactured by Talon Composites LLC, a leading provider of
high-performance advanced metal matrix materials. We have been successful in filling,
melting and handling the materials and to date, we have cast parts as
small as one -half pound and as large as the full engine block."
Talon President Robin Carden remarked: "Our material enables our
partners to realize clear advantages over conventional aluminum
alloys, including excellent thermal conductivity, stiffness and ease
of machining.

Jane Buehler, Chief Technology Officer, commented, "The need for reducing
friction is a critical concern in a number of industrial applications. Reduced friction can result in increased wear
life of customer parts, improve product performance, and considerably
reduce overall manufacturing and subsequent maintenance cost.
