ATC - Still in business??

I am looking for any information regarding Advanced Tubular Composites and if they are still in business. Their website is down, and I do not see their blanks for sale anywhere. I have a musky blank that I need to send in for warranty replacement....just trying to find out if I am out of luck.

No, they have effectively gone by the wayside. A small staff remains for liquidation purposes.

Thanks Tom, that's what I was afraid of.

Just received this reply from Fred Gasparach at ATC.

Scott
Unfortunately, we have sold off all of the inventory and machinery. I have no way to replace the warranty. If any thing changes i will contact you

Thanks for the plug Jerry . Sorry to say that Jerry and a few others purchased the few ATC blanks that I could get my hands on. You may have to wait til High Point to see if others ATC blanks show un in someones "garbage can " specials.

Thank you-
