                        Report of Independent Auditors


Valtek Incorporated Board of Directors and
          The Duriron Company, Inc. Pension and Insurance Committee
Valtek Incorporated Retirement Plan and Trust

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of Valtek Incorporated Retirement Plan and Trust as of December 31,
1993 and 1992, and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's administrator. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted out audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present failry, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in its net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held for
investment purposes as of December 31, 1993 and schedule of reportable
transactions for the year then ended are presented for the purpose of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                           DECEMBER 31, 1993 AND 1992


1.  DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following description of the Valtek Incorporated Retirement Plan and Trust
(Plan) is provided for general information purposes only.  Participants should
refer to the Plan document for more complete information.

GENERAL

The Plan is a single employer, contributory, profit sharing 401(k) plan and
covers those employees not covered by collective bargaining agreements who are
21 years of age and have completed six months of service on January 1 of each
year.  The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974.  Valtek Incorporated (the Company) is the Plan sponsor.
The New England was the trustee and administrator of the Plan through March
1992.  As of April 1, 1992, Putnam Fiduciary (Putnam) became the trustee and
Plan administrator.

RETIREMENT BENEFITS

A participant employed by the Company at normal retirement age (65) is entitled
to the maximum amount that can be purchased under an applicable group annuity
policy or other investment vehicle with the amount accrued in the participant's
account as of that date.  Early retirement is permitted upon completion of 15
years of service and attainment of age 55.  The Plan also includes a late
retirement provision under which the participant may remain employed up to the
age of 70 with the same benefits as normal retirement.

FUNDING POLICY

A participant may make a voluntary contribution which shall not exceed 10% of
such participant's aggregate earnings.  For contributions up to 6% of the
participant's compensation, the Company will make a 50% matching contribution.
The Company may also make discretionary contributions to the Trust out of
profits for each plan year.

SEPARATION AND DEATH BENEFITS

If the employment of a participant is terminated other than by retirement or
death, the participant

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


1.  DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED)

may receive benefits (1) in the form of a lump sum cash payment equal to all or
a portion of the vested amount in the participant's individual account or (2)
in the form of an annuity beginning on normal date of retirement.  Amounts
originally contributed to the participant by the Company out of profits which
are not vested at the termination date are forfeited, and are used to reduce
the amounts payable by the Company out of profits (as determined by the Board
of Directors).

If a participant dies, a death benefit equal to the amount in the participant's
benefit account, regardless of vesting provisions, shall be paid to the
participant's beneficiary.

VESTING

Participants are fully and immediately vested in their voluntary contribution
plus the matching amount contributed by the Company.  However, additional
amounts contributed by the Company out of profits vest 100 percent after five
years of credited service.

INCOME TAX STATUS

The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the Plan qualifies under Section
401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and is, therefore, not
subject to tax under present income tax law.  Once qualified, the Plan is
required to operate in conformity with the IRC to maintain its qualification.
The Plan Administrator is not aware of any course of action  or series of
events that have occurred that might adversely affect the Plan's qualified
status.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

All reasonable expenses necessary to operate and administer the Plan are paid
by the Company.  Investment expenses are paid by the Plan and are reflected in
the accompanying statements of changes in net assets available for benefits.

PLAN TERMINATION

The Company reserves the right at any time and within its sole discretion to
reduce or discontinue contributions to the Plan or to terminate the Plan.  Upon
termination of the Plan, 100% of the benefits, including accrued earnings and
employer voluntary contributions, of each affected participant shall become
fully vested.  The benefit to be distributed to each participant will be
distributed under normal retirement guidelines or, if elected, in a lump sum
cash payment.

1.  DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED)

INVESTMENT OPTIONS

Under the 401(k) plan, the employee has the option of investing contributions
in four different investment funds maintained by the administrator.  Following
are the employee's investment choices as of December 31, 1993: 1) Putnam
Voyager Fund provides opportunity for investment in emerging growth stocks
(usually to be held for long-term) and opportunity stocks;  2)  Putnam Growth
and Income Fund invests in income-producing stocks that pay high dividends;  3)
Putnam U.S. Government Income Fund invests in a variety of government-backed
securities.  This option provides safety and dependable long-term growth; and
the 4) Putnam Daily Dividend Trust is managed for safety and current income.
This option is a money market mutual fund that invests in high-quality money
market instruments maturing in one year or less.

Funds can be withdrawn from the Plan for the following reasons:  termination,
retirement, and hardship (includes buying a house, educational, medical needs,
and other severe hardships).


2.  SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

TRUST FUND AND VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS

Under the terms of a trust agreement, The New England was appointed
administrative and investment services provider for the Plan, until April 1992
when the Company switched to Putnam to provide these services.  Putnam has been
appointed administrative and investment services provider for the Plan, and has
been granted discretionary authority concerning purchases and sales of
investments that qualify for the four investment options.  The investments and
changes therein of this trust fund have been reported to the Plan by Putnam as
having been determined using current value for equity investments and contract
value for guaranteed investment contracts.  Current value is the quoted market
price on the last business day of the Plan year.

PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution, the
employer's contribution, and an allocation of the net investment gain or loss
of each fund as defined in the Plan agreement.
