                          LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY


Know all persons by these presents, that the undersigned hereby
constitutes and appoints each of Jeffrey A.
Martin, Richard W. Corman and Gary C. Wilkerson (each a "Designee"),
each acting alone with full power, the undersigned's true and lawful
attorney-in-fact to:

(1)	execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned's
capacity as an officer or director of Mueller Industries, Inc. or its
subsidiaries (the "Company"), Forms 3, 4 and 5 in accordance with Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;
and

(2)	do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the
undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute
any such Form 3, 4 or 5 and timely file such form with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar
authority.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 with respect
to the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued by
the Company, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed
writing delivered to either of the foregoing attorneys-in-fact;
provided, however, that a Designee's status as an attorney-in-fact for
the undersigned shall be automatically revoked if their employment with
the Company is terminated for any reason.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to
be executed as of this 7th day of May, 2014.
