Item 2:   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes and with Bairnco's
Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for the year
ended December 31, 1995.
 
Bairnco Corporation is a diversified multinational company that operates two
distinct businesses under the names Arlon and Kasco.

Engineered materials and components are designed, manufactured and sold under
the Arlon brand identity to electronic, industrial and commercial markets. 
These products are based on a common technology in coating, laminating and
dispersion chemistry.  Arlon's principal products include high performance
materials for the printed circuit board industry, cast and calendered vinyl
film systems, custom engineered laminates and pressure sensitive adhesive
systems, and calendered and extruded silicone rubber insulation products used
in a broad range of industrial, consumer and commercial products.

Replacement products and services are manufactured and distributed under the
Kasco name principally to retail food stores and meat, poultry and fish
processing plants throughout the United States, Canada and Europe.  The
principal products include replacement band saw blades for cutting meat,
fish, wood and metal, and on site maintenance services for the retail food
industry primarily in the meat and deli departments.  Kasco also distributes
equipment to the food industry in Canada and France. These products are sold
under a number of brand names including Kasco in the United States and
Canada, Atlantic Service in the United Kingdom, and Bertram & Graf and Biro
in Continental Europe.


Comparison of Second Quarter 1996 to Second Quarter 1995

Sales in the second quarter 1996 were $37,323,000, a decrease of 2.6% from
$38,309,000 in 1995.  Increased sales to the graphics and insulation markets
were more than offset by lower Kasco exports and equipment sales in France.
Also, sales to the electronics markets were lower during the second quarter
due to inventory corrections made by customers in the electronics industry.

Gross profit decreased 4.3% to $13,256,000 from $13,847,000.  The gross profit
margin as a percent of sales decreased from 36.1% to 35.5%.  The decrease is
attributable to lower sales, a continuing mix shift to lower margin
commercial electronics markets, and volume declines at plants serving the
electronic markets.

Continuing programs to improve operating efficiencies more than offset the
decline in gross profit.  Selling and administrative expenses improved 7.1%
to $9,276,000 from $9,980,000 primarily as the result of the ongoing impact
of programs to make Kasco a more cost effective enterprise.  As a percent of
sales, selling and administrative expenses were reduced to 24.9% from 26.1%.

Interest expense was reduced $94,000 to $433,000 for the second quarter from
$527,000 last year.  This reduction was the result of combined lower interest
rates and lower average borrowings in the quarter.

The effective tax rate for both the second quarter of 1996 and 1995 was 38%.
The provision for income taxes in both periods includes all applicable
federal, state, local and foreign income taxes.

Net income increased 6.2% to $2,199,000 as compared to $2,071,000 in the
second quarter of 1995.  Earnings per share increased 10% to $.22 from $.20
as a result of the increased net income and the reduced number of shares
outstanding.


Comparison of First Six Months 1996 to First Six Months 1995

Sales for the first half of 1996 were $75,417,000, a decrease of 1.8% from
$76,832,000 in 1995.  The decrease in sales was attributable to a 9.7% decline
in Kasco's sales.  Arlon's sales increased 2.3% over the same period as the
growing insulation and graphics markets offset the declines in demand from the
electronics markets.

Gross profit decreased $882,000, or 3.2% in 1996, from $27,576,000 in the
first half of 1995.  The gross profit margin as a percent of sales decreased
from 35.9% to 35.4%.  The profit margin declines are primarily attributable
to the continuing increase in Arlon's lower margin commercial electronics
business and reduced volumes at the plants serving the electronics markets.
Kasco's gross profit margin as a percent of sales improved during 1996 as the
divisions continued to focus on the core business.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased 6.0% to $18,897,000 from
$20,112,000.  As a percent of sales, selling and administrative expenses
decreased to 25.1% from 26.2%, the result of the ongoing impact of programs
to make Kasco a more cost effective enterprise.

Interest expense decreased $226,000 from the first half of 1995.  This
reduction was the result of combined lower interest rates and lower average
borrowings in the first half of 1996.

The effective tax rate for both the first half of 1996 and 1995 was 38%.  The
provision for income taxes in both periods includes all applicable federal,
state, local and foreign income taxes.

Net income increased 8.7% to $4,308,000 as compared to $3,962,000 in the first
half of 1995.  Earnings per share increased 13.2% to $.43 from $.38 as a
result of increased net income and fewer average shares outstanding.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

On April 30, 1996 Bairnco's secured reducing revolving credit agreement with
a consortium of four banks led by Bank of America, Illinois, and including,
SunTrust Bank, NBD Bank and First Union Bank of Florida, was amended.  The
amended agreement permits Bairnco to repurchase up to $10.0 million of its
common stock.

At June 29, 1996, Bairnco had working capital of $29.4 million compared to
$28.4 million at December 31, 1995.  The increase in accounts receivable
relates to the increased sales activity during the second quarter of 1996 over
that of the fourth quarter 1995 and the increase in export business which has
longer payment terms.

During the second quarter the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of
an additional $5,000,000 of the Corporation's common stock pursuant to which
35,300 shares of common stock have been repurchased.  A total of 384,300
shares of the Corporation's common stock have been repurchased during the six
months ended June 29, 1996.

At June 29, 1996, Bairnco's total debt outstanding was $28,106,000 compared to
$24,578,000 at the end of 1995.  This increase was primarily due to the stock
repurchases and the first quarter acquisition of a small silicone product
line.  At June 29, 1996 approximately $20.6 million was available for
borrowing under the Corporation's secured reducing revolving credit agreement,
as amended.  In addition, approximately $4.2 million was available under
various short-term domestic and foreign uncommitted credit facilities.  

Bairnco made approximately $3.1 million of capital expenditures during the
second quarter of 1996 bringing the total capital expenditures for the six
months ended June 29, 1996 to $5,899,000.  Total capital expenditures in 1996
are now expected to be approximately $13.8 million which includes
approximately $2.5 million related to the small silicone product line
acquisition.

Cash provided by operating activities plus the amounts available under the
existing credit facilities are expected to be sufficient to fulfill Bairnco's
anticipated cash requirements in 1996.


Other Matters

Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of legal
actions and proceedings which are discussed in more detail in Part II, Item 1
("Legal Proceedings") of this filing.  Management of Bairnco believes that the
disposition of these actions and proceedings will not have a material adverse
effect on the consolidated results of operations or the financial position of
Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries as of June 29, 1996.


Outlook

Management is not aware of any adverse trends that would materially affect the
Corporation's strong financial position.  Although the economy and a number of
Bairnco's served markets were soft during the second quarter, it is expected
that 1996 will be another year of continued improvement.





PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Since its announcement in January 1990 of its intention to spin off Keene
Corporation ("Keene"), Bairnco has been named as a defendant in a number of
individual personal injury and wrongful death cases in which it is alleged
that Bairnco is derivatively liable for the asbestos-related claims against
Keene.  In 1993, Bairnco and certain of its present and former officers and
directors were also named as defendants in two purported class actions in
which the same types of claims were made.  Both of these purported class
actions, which were consolidated in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York, subsequently were stayed by order of the
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, as described in the
following paragraph.

On December 6, 1993, Keene filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code.  The filing and certain subsequent proceedings led to a stay
of the asbestos-related individual and class actions referred to above.  On
May 5, 1995, the Bankruptcy Court overseeing the reorganization of Keene
entered an order allowing the Creditors' Committee to assume from Keene
responsibility for the pursuit of claims arising out of the transfer of assets
for value by Keene to other subsidiaries of Bairnco and the spin-offs of
certain subsidiaries, including Keene, by Bairnco.  On June 8, 1995, the
Creditors' Committee commenced an adversary proceeding in the Bankruptcy Court
against Bairnco and others alleging that the transfers of assets by Keene were
fraudulent and otherwise violative of law and seeking compensatory damages of
$700 million, plus interest and punitive damages (the "Transactions Lawsuit").
The complaint in the Transactions Lawsuit includes a count under the civil
RICO statute, 18 U.S.C. Section 1964, pursuant to which compensatory damages
are trebled.  Pending the confirmation of Keene's plan of reorganization,
no answers or responsive pleadings have been filed in the Transactions
Lawsuit.

Management believes that Bairnco has meritorious defenses to all claims or
liability purportedly derived from Keene and that it is not liable, as an
alter ego, successor, fraudulent transferee or otherwise, for the
asbestos-related claims against Keene or with respect to Keene products. 

Bairnco is party to a separate action brought by Keene in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, in which Keene seeks
exclusive benefit of tax refunds attributable to the carryback by Keene of
certain net operating losses ("NOL's"), notwithstanding certain provisions of
tax sharing agreements between Keene and Bairnco (the "NOL Lawsuit").  (After
filing the NOL Lawsuit, Keene ceded control of the action to the Creditors'
Committee.)  Pending resolution of the dispute by the Bankruptcy Court, any
refunds actually received are to be placed in escrow.  Through March 30,
1996, approximately $28.5 million of refunds had been received and placed in
escrow.  By stipulation, which has been approved by the Bankruptcy Court, 
Bairnco and the Creditors' Committee, the NOL Lawsuit was stayed pending
confirmation of Keene's plan of reorganization (see below).  There can be no
assurance whatsoever that resolution of the NOL Lawsuit will result in the
release of any portion of the refunds to Bairnco. 

The IRS has taken the position that the NOL refunds, which are issued on a
provisional basis, ultimately might be disapproved or reduced by the
congressional Joint Committee on Taxation and in that event would have to be
returned to the government in whole or in part.  There can be no assurance
that the NOL refunds ultimately will be approved.

Keene's plan of reorganization was submitted to creditors for approval, and
was approved by the requisite majorities.  On June 12, 1996 the Bankruptcy
Court and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New
York (the "District Court") entered orders approving the plan.  The plan
became effective on July 31, 1996.

The plan, as approved, creates a Creditors Trust that has succeeded to all of
Keene's asbestos liabilities, and also has succeeded to the right to prosecute
both the Transactions Lawsuit and the NOL Lawsuit.  The plan also includes a
permanent injunction under which only the Creditors Trust, and no other
entity, can sue Bairnco in connection with the claims asserted in the 
Transactions Lawsuit.  Prior to confirmation, Bairnco and other defendants in
the Transactions Lawsuit had entered into a stipulation (the "Transactions
Stipulation") that calls for the Transactions Lawsuit to be litigated in the
District Court.  The anticipated effect of these various provisions is that
all claims and claimants against Bairnco that relate to Keene's asbestos
liabilities should be consolidated for a single, binding resolution in the
Transactions Lawsuit in the District Court.

The Transactions Stipulation also stayed the Transactions Lawsuit until after
confirmation.  Prior to confirmation, Bairnco and the Creditors Committee also
entered into a stipulation that stayed the NOL lawsuit until after
confirmation.

Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of other
actions.  Management of Bairnco believes that the disposition of these other
actions, as well as the actions and proceedings described above, will not have
a material adverse effect on the consolidated results of operations or the
financial position of Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries as of June 29,
1996.
