BRC Commercializes New Patented Gaseous Fuel Injector CHERASCO,
Italy, Dec. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- IMPCO/BRC Technologies,
Inc. The BRC company announced today that it will commence
production of a new patented gaseous fuel injector beginning this
month at the company's manufacturing facility in Cherasco, Italy.
Mass production of this new patented and proprietary technology is
the result of a significant investment that included a three-year
research and development project and exhaustive field durability
testing where the product has performed very successfully. The
company projects sales of this new product at $1.5 million in 2004.
The company is capable of reaching an annual production capacity of
over 200,000 injectors per year as new Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) contracts are captured. The launching of this
injector marks a very important step forward for BRC in
strengthening its position as the leading worldwide supplier of
clean burning gaseous systems and components to the automotive
market. The injector has been designed to operate in a broad range
of OEM and Aftermarket vehicle applications from small and large
automobiles through heavy trucks and buses. Successful pre-launch
trails have resulted in the injector being specified and
commercialized by automotive and bus OEMs. The injectors are also
being evaluated by OEMs in the material handling, irrigation and
other industrial markets for use in their off-highway engine
applications. The BRC IN03 injector has a unique patented bottom
feed design that provides for a significant competitive advantage.
The injector has been developed according to SAEJ1832
specifications and homologated according to ISO15500, E67-01
regulations for liquefied petroleum gas use and R110 regulations
for compressed natural gas use. Regarding IMPCO & BRC: IMPCO
