Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to Haynes International, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the registration of 2,975,151
shares of common stock (the "Shares"), covered by the Registration Statement
on Form S-1 (together with all amendments thereto, the "Registration
Statement"), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act")
relating to the sale of the Shares by certain selling stockholders named in
the Registration Statement (the "Selling Stockholders").  Unless otherwise
defined herein, capitalized terms used shall have the meaning assigned to
them in the Registration Statement.

     In connection therewith, we have investigated those questions of law as
we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion.  We
have also examined originals, or copies, certified or otherwise identified to
our satisfaction, of those documents, corporate or other records,
certificates and other papers that we deemed necessary to examine for the
purpose of this opinion, including:

     1. The Registration Statement, including the form of prospectus included
therein, in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under
the 1933 Act;

     2. A copy of the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
certified by the Secretary of State of Delaware on May 9, 2005 to be a true
and correct copy thereof;

     3. A copy of the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, as amended
to date; and

     4. Such other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary or
appropriate to express the opinion set forth in this letter, subject to the
assumptions, limitations and qualifications stated herein.

     We have also relied, without investigation as to the accuracy thereof,
on other certificates of and oral and written communication from public
officials and officers of the Company.  We have made such examination of the
laws of the State of Delaware as we deemed relevant for purposes of this
opinion, but we have not made a review of, and express no opinion concerning,
the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

     For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed the authenticity of all
documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic
originals of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic
copies.

     Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth in
this letter, we are of the opinion that the Shares, when delivered by the
Selling Stockholders to and paid for by the purchasers thereof, will be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

     We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement, to the disclosure and summarization of the opinion in the
Registration Statement, including in the prospectus, and to the reference to
our firm in the Registration Statement under the caption "Legal Matters."  In
giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category
of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission promulgated thereunder.

                                                 Very truly yours,


                                                 /s/ Ice Miller
