         treasury stock were re-issued under the provision of the Company's
         1982 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the 1982 Plan), the Company's 1992
         Incentive Stock Option Plan (the 1992 Plan) and the Company's 1993
         Employee Stock Purchase and Payroll Savings Plan (the 1993 Plan).

         dividends paid (which included a $.35 per share special dividend).

4.       Earnings Per Share Calculation --

         Earnings per share have been computed on the basis of weighted average
         shares outstanding during the respective interim periods.  Common
         share equivalents were excluded because their dilutive effect is not
         significant.

For the Custom Components Group, sales were down $3,743,000, or 26% for the six
months.  This drop in volume resulted in a small operating loss.  Volume
decreased due primarily to three factors.  First, automotive related business
was down $1,692,000.  Second, on a comparative basis, a project for the
business machine market which was lost during the third quarter of fiscal 1995,
had shipments of $1,083,000 during the first six months last year.  Third,
shipments for an end-of-life project for the business machine market were down
$483,000.

Sales and operating income at the Fluid Power Group grew 19% and 12%,
respectively during the first six months.  These results are ahead of
expectations, even though profit margins were somewhat lower due to start-up
costs associated with the introduction of Power Gear's slide-out systems for
recreational vehicles.  The slide-out product which was introduced during the
first quarter has been well received by several key customers.

Sales at the Company's Medical Silicone business increased 41% with operating
income increasing at a faster pace.  The sales growth came from the company's
core medical business assisted by increased sales of consumer related products.
Product mix combined with higher volume resulted in improved operating income.
The demand from this unit's core medical customers has created capacity
constraints. The Company is in the early phases of implementing a two step plan
to expand manufacturing capacity, during the next quarter and into fiscal 1997.

On a consolidated basis, while sales have increased 3% for the six months,
operating income has declined 13%, or $637,000.  The decline in operating
income is attributable to Custom Components, where a 26% reduction in sales
resulted in poor absorption of costs causing an over $2 million drop in
operating income.

Cash Flows and Liquidity

Cash provided from operating activities was $3.7 million for the six months,
down from $4.1 million for the same period last year.  This decrease was due to
the drop in earnings versus the comparable period last year.  Significant
changes within current assets and liabilities since March 31, 1995 included
increases of $1,171,000 and $658,000 in receivables and inventory,
respectively, offset by a $914,000 increase in accounts payable. The growth in
all three of the above noted categories was at our Fluid Power and Medical
groups, where sales have increased significantly.  The ratios of days sales in
receivables and inventory turnover showed only slight deterioration from a year
ago at the Fluid Power and Medical groups.  As business has slowed at the
Customer Components Group the same two ratios have slipped, with an increase in
days sales outstanding of 7 days to 62, and a decrease in inventory turns of
1.2 to 6.2

Commitments for capital expenditures (investing activities) did not include any
significant amounts in excess of a normal level of replacement and improvements
to facilities and equipment.

Under the Company's program to repurchase up to 10% of its shares, 45,000
shares were acquired for $624,000 during the six months ended September 30,
1995 (all during the first quarter).  To date 87,500 shares have been
repurchased under the plan at a cost of $1,193,000.

At September 30, 1995, the Company had working capital of $28,302,000.
Included in working capital was $14,214,000 of cash and cash equivalents.
Management anticipates that this liquidity plus internally generated funds
provided by operations will be sufficient to cover known demands for uses of
working capital.


Outlook

Order backlog on September 30, 1995 was $11,962,000 versus $11,322,000 one year
ago.  Backlog at Medical increased, while it was flat at Fluid Power and down
at Custom Components.  Management is confident that our Fluid Power and Medical
businesses will continue to generate steadily improving results.  However, our
optimism for the balance of the fiscal year is somewhat tempered by a lingering
weakness in the automotive segment of our Custom Components Group.
