           suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in
           conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto
           included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

           Statements for the three month and six month periods ended June 30,
           1995 and June 30, 1994 reflect, in the opinion of the Company, all
           adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary
           to present fairly the results of these periods. Results for interim
           periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION:

For the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Company's borrowings increased $3.7
million to $21.9 million from $18.2 million. Correspondingly, the Company's debt
-to-capitalization ratio increased to 45% from the year-end level of 42%. The
additional borrowings were required to fund an increase in working capital and
to fund expenditures on capital projects. Working capital increased primarily
due to the growth in accounts receivable which resulted from the Company's
increased sales volume.

Capital expenditures through June were $4.2 million.  Of the amount spent thus
far, approximately 17% related to growth of the Company's Strategic Partnership
2000 program.  The Company expects to invest about $7 million overall on capital
projects in 1995.

In December 1994, the Company experienced a fire at its Solon, Ohio heat
treating facility. Throughout 1995, the Company made expenditures to repair or
replace plant and equipment damaged by the fire.  As of June 30, 1995, these
cash outlays totaled $700,000 after netting the effect of an advance received by
the Company against final settlement of an insurance claim made as a result of
the damage.  The Company expects to expend additional funds in the third quarter
to complete the restoration of the facility, and anticipates receiving the final
settlement for the claim by year-end 1995.

On July 26, 1995, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $.06 on
each of the Company's common shares, payable on September 1, 1995, to
shareholders of record at the close of business on August 10, 1995.  This was
the same amount as was paid in the previous quarter.

OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

Quarter Ended June 30, 1995 and 1994

Sales for the second quarter of 1995 increased $4.9 million, or 18%, to $31.4
million from $26.5 million in the second quarter of 1994.  Excluding sales for
Impact Industries, Inc. ("Impact") which was acquired on April 29, 1994, from
the second quarter of 1995 and 1994, sales for the Company increased 11% over
last year's second quarter . Second quarter sales, while improved over the
second quarter of 1994, reflected softening in some of the Company's markets
served, particularly with certain automotive and consumer products customers.

The Company's second quarter earnings from operations increased $435,000 to $2.9
million from $2.5 million in 1994, as operating margins were essentially
maintained as sales increased.

Interest expense for the second quarter increased $222,000 to $435,000 from
$213,000. The increase resulted from having additional borrowings related to the
purchase of Impact for three months during 1995 versus two months in 1994, and
an increase in the effective date of borrowings.

<PAGE>                                -8-

As a result of the above, second quarter net income increased $160,000, or 12%,
to $1.5 million from $1.3 million in the second quarter of 1994. Earnings per
share for the quarter increased $.03 to $.31 from $.28 in 1994.


Six Months Ended June 30, 1995 and 1994

For the six months ended June 30, 1995, sales were up $19.7 million, or 43%, to
$65.0 million from $45.3 million in 1994. Excluding Impact from each year in the
comparison, sales increased 18% from the prior year.  For 1995, the softening in
orders mentioned above was reflected in second quarter sales falling 7% below
the strong revenue level experienced during the first quarter of 1995.

Through June, earnings from operations increased $1.6 million to $5.8 million
from $4.2 million last year. This gain resulted mainly from the aforementioned
sales increase, as the Company's operating profit margin fell slightly from 1994
primarily due to reduced productivity in the first quarter as the Company's
operations maintained service levels during that period of high order demand.

The six month interest expense increased $580,000 to $860,000 from $280,000 in
1994.  This increase was the result of having additional borrowings related to
the purchase of Impact outstanding for six months in 1995 versus four months in
1994 and also a higher effective interest rate in 1995.

As a result of the above, first half earnings rose $640,000, or 28%, to $3.0
million in 1995 from $2.3 million the year before.  Earnings per share were $.62
versus $.49 in 1994, an increase of 27%.

Outlook:

Impact, as a result of new contracts, expects significant sales volume growth
from one of its existing customers to commence in the third quarter of 1995.
This customer is expected to add several million dollars annually to Impact's
revenues over the next three years.  Based on the short term outlook, however,
the new business with this customer will be offset to some degree by softness in
sales with some other customers as well as selected other business no longer
retained by Impact.
