EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Sept. 22, 2011 – Accuride Corporation (NYSE: ACW), a leading supplier of components to the commercial vehicle industry, today announced that it has appointed Charles M. (“Chuck”) Byrnes as Senior Vice President / Sales and Marketing. In this capacity, he will continue

“Chuck has industry-proven leadership skills to build customer relationships and loyalty to our brands, as well as the market experience required to prepare Accuride for successful future growth in Europe, Asia and South America,” Dauch said. “His appointment today is an important step in making our organization more globally experienced and customer-centric.”
Byrnes has more than 25 years of experience in the global transportation industry and joined Accuride from The Timken Company. There, he most recently served as Vice President of Sales for the Americas for Timken’s Bearings and Power Transmission Group during the past four years. This role included responsibility for developing and executing Timken’s sales plan for original equipment customers in the off-highway, heavy truck, process industries, aerospace, and positioning controls business units. Previously, he had served for two-year periods as Vice President-Automotive (Powertrain); Vice President, Purchasing; and Director European Automotive Sales and Marketing for Timken. Byrnes began his career with The Torrington Company in 1986, holding a range of management positions of increasing responsibility until the company was acquired by Timken in 2003.
