> Perryman will supply titanium for Apple products including the iPhone Duo; the night sky 512GB model still carried a Jan. 25, 2027, U.S. delivery estimate on Oct. 19.

Apple plans a three-year commitment of up to $100 million with Perryman Company, adding a Pennsylvania titanium supplier for products including the iPhone Duo as it expands U.S. manufacturing.

At its Houston, Pennsylvania, facility, Perryman melts, forges and rolls grade 5 titanium used for the Duo. The material has at least 80% recycled content. Apple’s announcement did not give a production target or ramp-up date for Perryman’s work.

“American ingenuity is vital to all our products,” Apple Chief Operating Officer Sabih Khan said.

Apple is also expanding U.S. camera-component work with Delaware-based Qnity Electronics. Qnity will produce advanced films for the variable-aperture 48-megapixel main camera in the iPhone 18 Pro.

The additions are part of Apple’s American Manufacturing Program, launched in August 2025 within a broader $600 billion, four-year U.S. spending and investment commitment. That figure covers the wider plan, not the Perryman commitment.

U.S. iPhone Duo preorders opened Oct. 16 at 8 a.m. ET (12:00 UTC). By 8:30 a.m. ET (12:30 UTC), shipping estimates across colors and storage configurations had reached Jan. 25, 2027. An [Oct. 19 U.S. store check](<https://www.tokenpost.com/news/business/35153>) still showed that date for the night sky 512GB model.

The iPhone Duo starts at $1,999 in the U.S., and availability is scheduled for Oct. 23.
