                                   REGULATIONS

                                       OF

                              ERICO PRODUCTS, INC.

                           1. SHAREHOLDERS' MEETINGS

         SECTION 1.1. ANNUAL MEETING.

         The annual meeting of shareholders will be held at the date and time
designated by a majority of the Board of Directors. At the annual meeting the
Corporation will lay before the shareholders financial statements for the most
recent fiscal year, and the shareholders will elect the Directors, and consider
reports to be laid before meeting.

         SECTION 1.2. SPECIAL MEETINGS.

         Special meetings of shareholders may be called by (i) the Chairman of
the Board, if any, or the President; (ii) the Directors by action at a meeting,
or by a majority of the Directors acting without a meeting; (iii) persons who
hold 25% percent of all shares outstanding and entitled to be voted at said
meeting; or (iv) the Secretary of the Corporation. If a written request by any
person or persons entitled to call a meeting of shareholders is delivered either
in person or by registered mail to the President or Secretary, the officer
receiving the notice will cause notice of the meeting to be given to the
shareholders entitled to the notice of the meeting, to be held not less than
seven nor more than one hundred twenty days after the receipt of such request,
as the officer may fix. If the notice is not given within forty days after the
delivery or mailing of the request for a meeting, the person or persons
requesting the meeting may fix the time of the meeting and give, or cause a
designated representative to give, notice of the meeting.

         SECTION 1.3. PLACE OF MEETINGS.

         Any meeting of shareholders may be held either within or without the
State of Ohio. The Directors may also determine that a meeting will not be held
at any physical place, but instead may be held solely by means of communications
equipment that enables the shareholders (and proxyholders) to participate in the
meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the shareholders, including an
opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting and to speak or
otherwise participate in the proceedings contemporaneously with other
participants.

         SECTION 1.4. NOTICE OF MEETINGS.

         Written notice stating the time, place (if any), and purposes of a
meeting of the shareholders, and, if applicable, the means by which shareholders
can be present and vote at the meeting using communications equipment is to be
given not less than seven nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting
to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. Notice is to be
given by personal delivery, by mail, by overnight delivery service, or by any
other means of communication authorized by the shareholder to whom notice is
given.



         SECTION 1.5. WAIVER OF NOTICE OF MEETINGS.

         Notice of the time, place, and purpose of any meeting, whether required
by law, by the Articles, or by these Regulations, may be waived in writing,
either before or after the holding of such meeting, by any shareholder. The
written waiver is to be filed with or entered upon the records of the meeting.
If a shareholder attends a meeting and does not protest the lack of proper
notice, prior to or at the commencement of the meeting, the shareholder has
waived any defect in the notice of that meeting.

         SECTION 1.6. RECORD DATE; SHAREHOLDER LIST.

         The Directors may fix a record date for any lawful purpose which shall
not be a date earlier than the date on which the record date is fixed, and with
respect to the right (1) to receive notice of or to vote at a meeting of
shareholders, (2) to receive payment of a dividend or distribution, or (3) to
receive or exercise rights of purchase, subscription, exchange or conversion of
shares or securities, shall be not more than ninety days preceding the date of
the meeting, or the date set for payment or exercise of rights. At any meeting
of shareholders, an alphabetically arranged list, or classified lists, of the
shareholders of record as of the applicable record date who are entitled to
vote, showing their addresses and the number and classes of shares held by each,
will be available to be produced at the request of any shareholder.

         SECTION 1.7. INSPECTORS OF ELECTION.

         Unless the Directors act, or the Chairman of a meeting acts, to appoint
another person or persons to act as inspectors of election, the Secretary of the
Corporation will be the inspector of elections.

         SECTION 1.8. QUORUM.

         To constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders, there shall be
present in person, by proxy or by the use of communications equipment
shareholders of record entitled to exercise not less than fifty-one per cent of
the voting power of the Corporation in respect of any one of the purposes for
which the meeting is called.

         SECTION 1.9. VOTING.

         Except as otherwise required by statute or the Articles, a majority of
the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders will control. Shareholders may not
cumulate votes in the election of Directors.

         SECTION 1.10. ACTION WITHOUT A MEETING.

         Any action which may be authorized or taken at a meeting of the
shareholders may be authorized or taken without a meeting with the affirmative
vote or approval of, and in a writing or writings signed by, all of the
shareholders who would be entitled to notice of a meeting of the shareholders
held for such purpose. Any writing or writings evidencing shareholder action
without a meeting is to be filed with or entered upon the records of the
Corporation. A telegram, cablegram, electronic mail, or an electronic or other
transmission capable of authentication that

                                        2


appears to have been sent by a shareholder and that contains an affirmative vote
or approval of that shareholder is a signed writing for purposes of this Section
1.10.

SECTION 1.11. CHAIRMAN OF MEETING.

         Any meeting of shareholders will be chaired by the Chairman of the
Board or, if the Directors have not elected a Chairman of the Board, the
President of the Corporation. If the officer who is responsible to chair a
shareholder meeting under the preceding sentence is unavailable to do so, that
officer may appoint any other officer of the Corporation to act as chairman of
any shareholders' meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Directors may
appoint any individual to act as chairman of any shareholders' meeting.

                                  2. DIRECTORS

         SECTION 2.1. ELECTION, NUMBER AND TERM OF OFFICE.

         Each Director will hold office until the next annual meeting of
shareholders, or until his successor is elected, or until his earlier
resignation, removal from office or death. At a meeting of shareholders at which
Directors are to be elected, only persons nominated as candidates are eligible
for election. The number of Directors cannot be less than three, unless all of
the shares of the Corporation are owned of record by one or two shareholders, in
which case the number of Directors may be less than three but not less than the
number of shareholders. Subject to the preceding sentence, the number of
Directors may be fixed or changed at a meeting of the shareholders, called for
the purpose of electing Directors at which a quorum is present, by the
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented at the
meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal.

         SECTION 2.2. DIRECTORS MEETINGS.

         Regular meetings of the Directors will be held immediately after the
annual meeting of shareholders and at such other times and places as may be
fixed by the Directors, and such meetings may be held without further notice.
Meetings of the Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board, if any, by
the President, by a Vice President, by the Secretary or by any two Directors.
Written notice of the time and place of a meeting must be given to each Director
either by personal delivery or by mail, telegram, or cablegram at least 48 hours
prior to the time of the meeting. The notice need not specify the purposes of
the meeting.

         SECTION 2.3. QUORUM AND VOTING.

         A majority of the whole authorized number of Directors is necessary to
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, except that a majority of
Directors in office constitutes a quorum for filling a vacancy on the board. The
act of a majority of the Directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is
present is the act of the Directors.

         SECTION 2.4. ACTION WITHOUT A MEETING.

         Any action that may be authorized or taken at a meeting of the
Directors may be authorized or taken without a meeting with the affirmative vote
or approval of, and in a writing

                                        3


or writings signed by, all of the Directors, which writing or writings are to be
filed with or entered upon the records of the Corporation. A telegram,
cablegram, electronic mail, or an electronic or other transmission capable of
authentication that appears to have been sent by a Director and that contains an
affirmative vote or approval of that Director is a signed writing for purposes
of this Section 2.4.

         SECTION 2.5. COMMITTEES.

         The Directors may from time to time create a committee or committees of
the Directors, to consist of one or more Directors, and may delegate to any
committee or committees any of the authority of the Directors, other than the
authority of filling vacancies among the Directors or in any committee of the
Directors. Each committee serves at the pleasure of the Directors, can act only
in intervals between meetings of the Directors, and is subject to the control
and direction of the Directors.

         SECTION 2.6. REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS; FILLING OF VACANCIES

         The office of a Director becomes vacant if the Director dies or
resigns. The Directors may remove any Director if (i) the Director is found to
be of unsound mind by order of court or if the Director is adjudicated bankrupt,
or (ii) within 60 days from the date of the Director's election the Director
does not qualify by accepting the election in writing or acting at a meeting of
Directors. A vacancy is also created if (i) the shareholders remove a Director
and fail to elect, at the same meeting, a Director to fill the unexpired term,
(ii) the shareholders increase the authorized number of Directors but fail to
elect, at the same meeting or an adjournment of that meeting, the additional
Directors provided for, or (iii) the shareholders fail at any time to elect the
whole number of authorized Directors. Any vacancy may be filled by a majority
vote of the remaining Directors then in office, even though less than a quorum
of the whole authorized number of Directors, or by a sole remaining Director.

                                  3. OFFICERS

         SECTION 3.1. OFFICERS.

         The officers of the Corporation will include a President, a Secretary,
and a Treasurer. The Corporation may also have a Chairman of the Board, one or
more Vice Presidents and such other officers and assistant officers as the
Directors consider necessary. All of the officers are to be elected by the
Directors. Any Chairman of the Board is to be a Director. None of the other
officers need to be Directors. Any two or more offices may be held by the same
person, but no officer is to execute, acknowledge, or verify any instrument in
more than one capacity if such instrument is required by law to be executed,
acknowledged, or verified by two or more officers. All officers are to be
elected annually.

         SECTION 3.2. AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF OFFICERS.

         Each officer of the Corporation is to have the authority and perform
such duties as are customarily incident to the office in which the officer
serves, except as otherwise determined by the Directors.

                                        4


         SECTION 3.3. REMOVAL AND FILLING VACANCIES OF OFFICERS.

         Any officer may be removed, with or without cause, by the Directors
without prejudice to the contract rights of the officer. The Directors may fill
any vacancy in any office occurring for any reason.

                        4. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

         SECTION 4.1. INDEMNIFICATION.

A.       The Corporation will indemnify or agree to indemnify any person who was
or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending,
or completed action, suit, or proceeding whether civil, criminal,
administrative, or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the
Corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a Director, officer,
employee, or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of
the Corporation as a Director, trustee, officer, employee, member, manager, or
agent of another corporation, domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, a
limited liability company, or a partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, against expenses, including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
with such action, suit, or proceeding, if he acted in good faith and in a manner
he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if he had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any
action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or on a
plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not, of itself, create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

B.       The Corporation will indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is
threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending, or completed action
or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its
favor, by reason of the fact that he is or was a Director, officer, employee, or
agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation
as a Director, trustee, officer, employee, member, manager, or agent of another
corporation, domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, a limited liability
company, or a partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against
expenses, including attorney's fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, if he acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made
in respect of any of the following:

         (i)      Any claim, issue, or matter as to which the person is adjudged
to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the
Corporation unless, and only to the extent that, the court of common pleas or
the court in which such action or suit was brought determines, upon application,
or independent legal counsel in a written report determines in the specific
instance that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses as the court or counsel shall deem proper; or

                                       5


         (ii)     Any action or suit in which the only liability asserted
against a Director is pursuant to section 1701.95 of the Ohio Revised Code.

         C.       The indemnification authorized by these Regulations is not
exclusive of, and is in addition to, any other rights granted to those seeking
indemnification under the Articles, any agreement, a vote of shareholders or
disinterested Directors, or otherwise, both as to action in their official
capacities and as to action in another capacity while holding their offices or
positions, and will continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Director,
trustee, officer, employee, member, manager, or agent and will inure to the
benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.

         D.       As used in this Section 4.1, "Corporation" includes all
constituent entities in a consolidation or merger and the new or surviving
corporation, so that any person who is or was a Director, officer, employee,
trustee, member, manager, or agent of such a constituent entity, or is or was
serving at the request of such constituent entity as a Director, trustee,
officer, employee, member, manager, or agent of another corporation, domestic or
foreign, nonprofit or for profit, a limited liability company, or a partnership,
joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position
under this Section with respect to the new or surviving corporation as he would
if he had served the new or surviving corporation in the same capacity.

         SECTION 4.2. AGREEMENTS.

         The Corporation, upon approval by the Directors, may enter into
agreements with any persons whom the Corporation may indemnify under these
Regulations or under law and undertake thereby to indemnify such persons and to
pay the expenses incurred by them, in accordance with the terms and conditions
of the applicable agreements, in defending any action, suit or proceeding
against them.

                                   5. SHARES

         SECTION 5.1. TRANSFER AND REGISTRATION OF CERTIFICATES.

         The Directors may make rules regarding: the manner in which and
conditions upon which a certificated security, and the associated shares, may be
transferred; the manner in which and conditions upon which a uncertificated
security, and the associated shares, may be transferred; restrictions on the
right to transfer the shares; and reservations of liens on shares.

         SECTION 5.2. SUBSTITUTED CERTIFICATES.

         Any person claiming a certificate for shares to have been lost, stolen
or destroyed is to make an affidavit or affirmation of that fact, and, if
required by the Directors, or by the President or a Vice President and the
Secretary or the Treasurer, is to post a bond on such terms as may be required,
whereupon a new certificate may be executed and delivered of the same tenor and
for the same number of shares as the one alleged to have been lost, stolen or
destroyed.

                                       6


                                 6. AMENDMENTS

         These Regulations may be amended by the affirmative vote of the holders
of shares entitling them to exercise a majority of the voting power on the
proposal or by the written consent of the holders of shares entitling them to
exercise two-thirds of the voting power on such proposal. If an amendment is
adopted by written consent without a meeting of the shareholders, the Secretary
is to mail a copy of the amendment or the new Regulations to each shareholder
who would have been entitled to vote on the amendment or the new Regulations but
did not participate in the written consent.

                                       7
