             EASTCO INDUSTRIAL SAFETY CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED
       FINANCIAL CONDITION AND CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had working capital as of March 31, 1995 of approximately 
$1,002,000 as compared to approximately $1,042,000 as of June 30, 1994.  A 
substantial portion of the Company's working capital consists of inventory, 
which was approximately $4,145,000 and $3,166,000 as of March 31, 1995 and 
June 30, 1994, respectively.  The Company is required to maintain substantial
inventories of its numerous products in order to meet the immediate shipping 
requirements of its customers who require products on short notice and who 
do not maintain an inventory of such products.  In addition, with the 
Company's available working capital and its ability to obtain and maintain 
sufficient inventories, there can be no assurance that the additional 
inventory will be sufficient to meet sales demands, or that the Company will
be able to achieve or maintain sufficient inventories in the future.  The 
Company believes that its current working capital position will be sufficient
to satisfy its needs for the current fiscal year. 

Effective October 1, 1994, the Company and Congress Financial Corporation 
extended its October 1991 line of credit agreement for two years
whereby the Company may borrow up to $5,000,000, under the same terms except
that interest on the used portion of the line will be reduced by 1/2% and 
the unused line fee will be reduced by 1/4%.  The amounts outstanding at 
March 31, 1995 and June 30, 1994 were approximately $4,083,000 and 
$3,184,000, respectively.  The Company has $87,000 available for borrowing 
at March 31, 1995, after adjusting for its liability for outstanding checks.

The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures.

At the present time, the Company, together with a variety of defendants, is 
a party to various asbestos-related lawsuits involving a number of plaintiffs
alleging damages from exposure to asbestos products sold by the Company.  
The Company may become a party to additional asbestos-related actions in the 
future.  The Company is also party to other non-asbestos-related litigation.
The Company cannot, at this time, determine the outcome of this uncertainty 
which may have an adverse effect upon the liquidity of the Company in the 
future.


Results of Operations

Net sales for the three months ended March  31, 1995 were $5,969,000 as 
compared to $5,231,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1994,
an increase of $738,000 or 14.1%.  Sales in the distribution segment 
decreased 1.0% to $1,896,000 from $1,916,000 for the same quarter last
year.  This decrease is due to the Company's continued efforts to reduce 
its dependency on abatement industry sales.  Sales in the manufacturing
segment increased 22.9% to $4,073,000 from $3,315,000 compared to the same 
quarter last year.

Net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 were $17,365,000, an 
increase of 14.0% from the comparable sales for the period ending
March 31, 1994 of $15,232,000.  In the nine months ended March 31, 1995 
distribution sales were $6,672,000, an increase of $165,000 or
2.5% compared to the same nine months in the prior year, while the 
manufacturing sales increased 22.6% to $10,693,000 from $8,725,000
for the same period in the prior year.  The increase in sales is mainly due 
to the continued improvement in the Company's working capital
position, management's efforts to achieve profitable operations and 
improvement in overall industry conditions.

The Company's gross profit margin increased to 21.7% of sales for the third 
quarter of fiscal 1995 as compared to 14.9% for the third quarter
fiscal 1994.  The Company believes that the continued increase in gross 
profit is primarily the result of efficiencies in production, improved
purchasing due to the availability of working capital, as well as improved 
industry conditions.  The Company's gross profit margin for the nine
months ended March 31, 1995 rose to 20.0% from 15.0% for the similar period 
in the prior year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 
1995 were approximately $1,111,000 or 18.6% of sales compared
to approximately $1,118,000 or 21.4% of sales for the same period last year.
The decrease in these expenses as a percentage of sales was due
to the increase in sales volume experienced in the quarter, as well as the 
effect of the Company's continuing efforts to reduce costs.  These
expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 were approximately 
$3,183,000 (or 18.3% of sales) as compared to approximately
$3,402,000 (or 22.3% of sales) for the same period in the prior year.

Interest expense (net) was approximately $146,000 for the third quarter of 
fiscal 1995, a decrease of approximately $3,000 when compared
to the same quarter of fiscal 1994, and was principally due to the reduction 
in the interest rate charged by Congress on its loan.  For the nine
months ended March 31, 1995 the interest expense (net) was approximately 
$405,000, a decrease of approximately $50,000 from the same
period in the prior year.

The Company earned $.02 per share for the quarter ended March, 31, 1995 as 
compared to a loss of  $.59 in the quarter ended March 31, 1994. 
For the nine months ended March 31, 1995, the Company showed a cumulative 
break-even against $1.96 per share loss for the same period
in the prior year.  This decrease is due to the Company's loss reductions.  
The increase in shares outstanding was due to shares issued in
connection with the Company's public stock offering and stock issued in 
connection with certain loans, which occurred during the fourth quarter
of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994.
