        Re:      Synalloy Corporation
                 PREC14A preliminary proxy statement filing made on Schedule
14A
                 Filed on March 20, 2020 by Privet Fund LP, et al.
                 File No. 000-19687

Dear Mr. Levenson:

       We have reviewed the above-captioned filing, and have the following
comments. All
defined terms used herein have the same meaning as in the proxy statement filed
under cover of
Schedule 14A. In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with
information so we
may better understand your disclosure.

        Please respond to this letter by amending your filing, by providing the
requested
information. If you do not believe our comments apply to your facts and
circumstances, or do
not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your response.

       After reviewing any amendment to your filing, and any information you
provide in
response to these comments, we may have additional comments.

Schedule 14A

General

     1. Throughout the letter to shareholders and the proxy statement, you
refer to a plan for the
        Company that the Nominees are preparing without disclosing the details
of such plan.
        For example, we note the statement on the letter to shareholders that
the Nominees "are
        already working to prepare the type of 100-day transition plan that can
expedite the
        Company's revitalization." We further note the statement on page 22
that "[w]e intend
        to release our comprehensive vision for a stronger Synalloy in the
weeks ahead." Please
        confirm for us that the Nominees' plan will be disclosed.

     2. With a view towards disclosure, please provide support for your
assertion in the letter to
        shareholders that "the Board is comprised primarily of individuals with
limited
        operating experience across the steel, metals and chemicals verticals."
We note that the
        proxy statement contains a similar statement on page 11.

Background to Solicitation, pages 4-10

    3. With a view towards disclosure, please provide support for your
statement on page 9
       that the Metals unit "appeared to Privet to be Mr. Bram's primary
focus." We note that
       the proxy statement contains a similar statement on page 15.

Reasons for the Solicitation, pages 11-22

    4. The disclosures in the footnotes to the various charts in this section
indicate that the
       Closest Direct Peers "include" certain enumerated companies. With a view
towards
       disclosure, please advise us whether the term "include" as used in this
context is
       intended to signal that additional Closest Direct Peers exist that are
not explicitly
       identified in such footnotes.

    5. Please advise us how the enumerated companies were selected as the
Closest Direct
       Peers of the Company.

    6. We note your statements on page 13 that SG&A "as a percentage of revenue
continues
       to rise" and that the corporate cost base is "consistently rising." We
further note,
       however, that although the chart on page 14 displays the Company's SG&A
as a
       percentage of revenue as higher in 2019 than it was in 2011, it
decreased year-over-year
       in 2017 and 2018. As such, please advise us as to how the chart
demonstrates the
       continued and consistent rise in the Company's SG&A as a percentage of
revenue and
       corporate cost base from 2011 through 2019.

    7. We note your statement on page 18 that "the Company's returns on both
assets and
       invested capital have markedly deteriorated over the past nine years."
In that regard, we
       note that the chart on page 18 displays the Company's return on average
assets but not
       the Company's return on invested capital from 2011 through 2019.

    8. Please revise your disclosures to clarify how you derived the Company's
"return on
       average assets" and "total leverage" in the charts on pages 18 and 19.

Proposal One   Election of Directors, pages 23-26

    9. Please confirm that in the event you select a substitute or additional
nominee prior to the
       Annual Meeting (as provided on page 26), you will file an amended proxy
statement that
       (1) identifies such nominee, (2) will only include a bona fide nominee
and (3) includes
       disclosure required by Items 5(b) and 7 of Schedule 14A with respect to
such nominee.

Incorporation by Reference, page 37

    10. Rule 14a-5(c) permits information to be omitted if a clear reference is
made to the
        document containing such information. The information is not
"incorporated by

Page | 3

        reference" as the title to this section indicates. Please revise,
especially given that
        Instruction D to Schedule 14A governs incorporation by reference. In
addition, due to
        need for the participants to comply with Rule 14a-3(a)(1), please
disclose the specific
        line items within Schedule 14A the participants have seemingly sought
to satisfy by
        referencing Synalloy's proxy statement through ostensible reliance upon
Rule 14a-5(c).

                                        *       *      *

        We remind you that the participants are responsible for the accuracy
and adequacy of
their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of
action by the staff.

        Please direct any questions to Valian Afshar, Special Counsel, at (202)
551-8729, or me,
at (202) 551-3266.

                                                            Sincerely,

                                                            /s/ Nicholas P.
Panos

                                                            Nicholas P. Panos
                                                            Senior Special
Counsel
                                                            Office of Mergers
and Acquisitions
