By most accounts, public companies with fastener operations turned in strong results in the third quarter of 2013.

But one company had an especially robust share gain during the quarter: Carpenter Technologies.

The Wyomissing, PA-based company achieved the highest percentage increase in Q3 among companies tracked by the FIN Fastener Stock Index, gaining 29% after two consecutive quarters of share declines.

Carpenter Technologies reported net sales of $2.27 billion in fiscal 2013, which ended July 30. Full-year operating income grew 13% to $232.7 million.

And a recent supply agreement with United Technologies Corp. should improve their performance in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

Carpenter Technology manufactures and distributes heading wire/rod and bar products in specialty alloys, including stainless steels, titanium alloys, superalloys, and various engineered products.
