                             301 Central Park Drive

                                 PROXY STATEMENT

         This Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy are furnished by the
Board of Directors of TNR Technical, Inc. ("TNR" or "the Company") in connection
with the solicitation of proxies for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders
(the "Meeting") referred to in the foregoing notice. It is contemplated that
this Proxy Statement (which includes the Company's annual report on Form 10-K
for its fiscal year ended July 31, 1999, exclusive of exhibits), together with
the accompanying form of proxy will be mailed together to shareholders on or
about November 1, 1999.

         The record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to
notice of and to vote at the Meeting is October 29, 1999. On that date there
were issued and outstanding approximately 261,000 shares of Common Stock, par
value $.02 per share. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a
majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the
Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum. In deciding all questions, a
shareholder shall be entitled to one vote, in person or by proxy, for each share
held in his name on the record date. In proposal No. 1, directors will be
elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Meeting. Proposal No. 2 and any
other proposals that may come before the meeting will be decided by a majority
of the votes cast at the Meeting.

         All proxies received pursuant to this solicitation will be voted
(unless revoked) at the Annual Meeting of December 10, 1999 or any adjournment
thereof in the manner directed by a shareholder and, if no direction is made,
will be voted for the election of each of the management nominees for director
in Proposal No. 1 and in favor of Proposal No. 2. If any other matters are
properly presented at the meeting for action, which is not presently
anticipated, the proxy holders will vote the proxies (which confer authority to
such holders to vote on such matters) in accordance with their best judgment. A
proxy given by a shareholder may nevertheless be revoked at any time before it
is voted by communicating such revocation in writing to the transfer agent,
American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, at 40 Wall Street, New York, New York
10005 or by executing and delivering a later-dated proxy. Furthermore, any
person who has executed a proxy but is present at the Meeting may vote in person
instead of by proxy; thereby canceling any proxy previously given, whether or
not written revocation of such proxy has been given.

         As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board of Directors knows of
no matters other than the foregoing that will be presented at the Meeting. If
any other business should properly come before the Meeting, the accompanying
form of proxy will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons named
therein, and discretionary authority to do so is included in the proxies. All
expenses in connection with the solicitation of this proxy will be paid by the
Company. In addition to solicitation by mail, officers, directors and regular
employees of the Company who will receive no extra compensation for their
<PAGE>

services, may solicit proxies by telephone, telegraph or personal calls.
Management does not intend to use specially engaged employees or paid solicitors
for such solicitation. Management intends to solicit proxies which are held of
record by brokers, dealers, banks, or voting trustees, or their nominees, and
may pay the reasonable expenses of such record holders for completing the
mailing of solicitation materials to persons for whom they hold the shares. All
solicitation expenses will be borne by the Company.

                                 PROPOSAL NO. 1
                              ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Management recommends that you vote in favor of the six nominees named to the
Board of Directors. Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast
at the Meeting.

         Six directors are to be elected at the meeting for terms of one year
each and until their successors shall be elected and qualified. It is intended
that votes will be cast pursuant to such proxy for the election of the six
persons whose names are first set forth below unless authority to vote for one
or more of the nominees is withheld by the enclosed proxy, in which case it is
intended that votes will be cast for those nominees, if any, with respect to
whom authority has not been withheld. All six of the nominees namely, Jerrold
Lazarus, Norman Thaw, Wayne Thaw, Kathie Thaw, Mitchell Thaw and Patrick Hoscoe
are now members of the Board of Directors. In the event that any of the nominees
should become unable or unwilling to serve as a director, a contingency which
the management has no reason to expect, it is intended that the proxy be voted,
unless authority is withheld, for the election of such person, if any, as shall
be designated by the Board of Directors. The following table sets forth
information concerning each proposed director of the Company.

Management recommends that you vote in favor of the ratification, adoption and

                This Proposition will be decided by a majority of

                 the holders of shares entitled to vote thereon.

         The information which follows contains a description of the 1998 Plan
as approved by the Board of Directors.

                                        4
<PAGE>

General

         The 1998 Incentive and Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan, (the "1998
Plan"), was approved by the Board of Directors effective on December 15, 1998
subject to stockholder approval within twelve months. The 1998 Plan currently
covers 30,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment of shares under the
anti-dilution provisions of the 1998 Plan. The 1998 Plan authorizes the issuance
of the options covered thereby as either "Incentive Stock Options" within the
meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or as "Non-Statutory
Stock Options." Persons eligible to receive options under the 1998 Plan include
employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisors, provided that bona fide
services shall be rendered by consultants or advisors and such services must not
be in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital raising
transaction; however, only employees are eligible to receive an Incentive
Option. The 1998 Plan also provides that no options may be granted after
December 15, 2008. The 1998 Plan is not subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 as amended ("ERISA").

Eligibility and Participation

         Incentive Stock Options Under this Plan may be granted under this Plan
only to officers (who are employees) and to other key employees of (a) the
Company and (b) "subsidiaries" of the Company. A director of the Company or any
subsidiaries may receive an Incentive Stock Option under this Plan if such
person is otherwise an employee of the Company and/or any subsidiaries. An
employee, director or officer of the Company (or any subsidiaries), may receive
a Non-Statutory Stock Option. In addition, consultants and advisors who the
Board determines are providing bona fide services to the Company or any
subsidiaries, whether or not otherwise compensated, may receive a Non-Statutory
Stock Option so long as the Plan would continue to qualify as an Employee
Benefit Plan under the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. In determining the
persons to whom Options shall be granted and the number of shares to be covered
by each Option, the Board may take into account the nature of the services
rendered by, and the responsibilities borne by, such respective persons, their
present and potential contributions to the Company's success and such other
factors as the Board in its discretion shall deem relevant. Under the 1998 Plan,
the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the option is granted)
of the Optioned Stock for which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the
first time by any employee during any calendar year (under all such Plans of the
individual's Employer Corporation and its parent and subsidiary corporation)
shall not exceed $100,000. More than one option may be granted to any optionee.
Subject to the number of shares covered by the Plan, no further restrictions are
placed on the Board of Directors in determining eligibility or participation for
granting options or the amount of options which may be granted to, any director
or executive officer, any other officer, and any employee. The Company employed
27 persons as of July 31, 1999, each of whom are eligible to participate in the
1998 Plan at the discretion of the Board of Directors. As of October 15, 1999,
no options have been granted under the 1998 Plan and none are presently
contemplated by the Board of Directors.

<PAGE>

Administration

         The 1998 Plan is administered by the Company's Board of Directors, but
may be administered by a stock option committee consisting of three members of
the Board, which would have the authority to determine the persons to whom
options shall be granted, whether any particular option shall be an Incentive
Option or a Non-Statutory Option, the number of shares to be covered by each
option, the time or times at which options will be granted or may be exercised
and the other terms and provisions of the Options. The Board's (or Committee's)
determination on all matters shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and
on all Optionees and their legal representatives.

Term of Plan

         The Board of Directors may terminate the 1998 Plan at any time.
Termination of the Plan will not affect rights and obligations theretofore
granted and then in effect. No options may be granted later than December 15,
2008.

Option Price and Duration of Option

         The 1998 Plan also provides that: (i) the exercise price of options
granted thereunder is not less than 100% (or in the case of an Incentive Option,
110% if the optionee owns 10% or more of the outstanding voting securities of
the Company) of the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant, as
determined by the Board or Committee, and (ii) no option by its terms may be
exercised more than ten years (five years in the case of an Incentive Option,
where the optionee owns 10% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the
Company) after the date of grant. Any options which are canceled or not
exercised within the option period become available for future grants.

Exercise of Options

         An Option granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time or
times, whether or not in installments, as the Board shall prescribe at the time
the Option is granted. An Option which has become exercisable may be exercised
in accordance with its terms as to any or all full shares purchasable under the
provisions of the Option, but not at any time as to less than 100 shares unless
the remaining shares which have become so purchasable are less than 100 shares.
Except as stated below, an Incentive Stock Option may not be exercised at any
time unless the holder thereof is then an employee of the Company or any
subsidiaries and shall have been continuously employed by the Company or any
subsidiaries since the date of grant. In the case of Optionee's death, the
lawful heirs or beneficiaries of a deceased Optionee may exercise Incentive
Stock Options for a maximum period of six months after the Optionee's death, so
long as the Option has otherwise not expired.

         In the event of termination of employment of a person to whom an
Incentive Stock Option has been granted under the Plan by reason of the
disability of such person, the optionee may exercise his Incentive Stock Option
at any time within one year after such termination of employment but in no event

                                        6
<PAGE>

after the day in which the Incentive Stock Option would otherwise terminate, to
the extent of the number of shares covered by his Incentive Stock Option which
were purchasable by him at the date of the termination of employment.

         In the case of Non-Statutory Stock Options, the disability or death of
optionee shall not terminate the options granted to an officer, director or
employee so long as such officer, director or employee was continuously
performing services for the Company up to the date of his disability or death,
as the case may be. In the case of non-statutory options, the Board shall
determine other applicable termination provisions of these options, if any.

Payment of Exercise Price

         The purchase price of the shares shall be paid by cash in full,
together with any applicable income tax and other withholding amounts upon
exercise of the option.

Transferability

         All Stock Options are non-transferable except by will or the laws of
descent and distribution and an option granted to an individual may be exercised
during the lifetime of the holder thereof, only by the holder.

Adjustment upon Changes in Capitalization.

         Subject to compliance with the requirements for qualification of the
Plan and of the Options issued or to be issued thereunder as "Incentive Stock
Options" under applicable provisions of federal laws and regulations, the
aggregate number and class of shares as to which Options may be granted under
the Plan, the number and class of shares covered by each outstanding Option and
the price per share thereof (but not the total price), and each such Option,
shall all be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number
of issued shares of Common Stock of the Company resulting from a split-up or
consolidation of shares or any like capital adjustment, or the payment of any
stock dividends, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued
shares of Common Stock of the Company without receipt of consideration by the
Company.

         Subject to any required action by the stockholders, if the Company
shall be the surviving corporation in any merger or consolidation, any Option
granted hereunder shall be adjusted so as to pertain and apply to the securities
to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
subject to the Option would have been entitled.

         Upon (i) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (ii) a merger
or consolidation of the Company with one or more corporations as a result of
which the Company is not the surviving corporation, or (iii) a sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, any Option
granted hereunder at the discretion of the Board of Directors by Resolution
shall terminate, but the Option holder shall have the right, prior to any such
event, to exercise his Option in whole or in part, but in no event after the day
in which the Option would otherwise terminate. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, if the Company is merged into a corporation

which will be substantially (i.e. 70% or more) owned after the merger by the
same shareholders of the Company, then any Option granted hereunder shall be
adjusted so as to pertain and apply to the securities to which the holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock of the Company subject to the Option would have
been entitled.

Tax Consequences

         Incentive stock options granted under the 1998 Plan are designed to
qualify for the special tax treatment for incentive stock options provided for
in the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). Under the provisions of the Code, an
optionee who at all times from the date of grant until three months before the
date of exercise is an employee of the Company, and who holds the shares of
Common Stock obtained upon exercise of his incentive stock option for two years
after the date of grant and one year after exercise, will recognize no taxable
income on either the grant or exercise of such option and will recognize capital
gain or loss on the sale of the shares. If such shares are held by the optionee
for the required holding period, the Company will not be entitled to any tax
deduction with respect to the grant or exercise of the option. If such shares
are sold by the optionee prior to the expiration of the holding periods
described above, the optionee will recognize ordinary income upon such
disposition. Upon the exercise of an incentive stock option, the optionee will
incur an item of tax preference equal to the excess of the fair market value of
the shares at the time of exercise over the exercise price, which may subject
the optionee to the alternative minimum tax.

         The grant of a non-qualified option pursuant to the 1998 Plan will
generally speaking result in neither taxable income to the optionee nor a tax
deduction to the Company; however, when an optionee exercises such an option, he
or she will realize, for Federal income tax purposes, ordinary income in the
amount of the difference between the option price and the then market value of
the share, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. Any
such ordinary income may be subject to Federal income tax withholding at the
time of such exercise and will increase the optionee's tax basis for the purpose
of computing gain or loss on the later sale or exchange of the shares. Officers
and directors, if any, who are subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 may be subject to different tax consequences upon exercise
of their options, unless they file an election under Section 83(b) of the
Internal Revenue Code within 30 days of such exercise.

         Because of frequent changes in the tax law, the Company recommends that
optionees ascertain the status of the federal, state and local law (and proposed
legislation) as it applies to their individual situation prior to the exercise
of options and also prior to the time of any disposition of Common Stock
acquired upon exercise of the options.

         State and foreign tax consequences vary from jurisdiction to
jurisdiction, and each optionee should consult with his or her own tax adviser
as to the effect of these taxes as well as the effect of the Federal income tax,
in his or her particular case.
