                    Report of Independent Public Accountants


To the Administrative Committee of the
Seabee Corporation Pension and Retirement Savings Plan

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for plan
benefits of SEABEE CORPORATION PENSION AND RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN as of
December 31, 1996, and the related statement of changes in net assets available
for plan benefits for the year then ended. The statement of net assets available
for plan benefits as of December 31, 1995 and the related statement of changes
in net assets available for plan benefits for the year then ended were audited
by other auditors whose report dated September 20, 1996, except for Note 8, as
to which the date is June 19, 1997, expressed an unqualified opinion on those
statements. These financial statements and the schedules referred to below are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits as of December
31, 1996, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year
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 schedules of assets held for
investment purposes and reportable transactions 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 fund information in the statement of
net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather
than to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in net
assets available for plan benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and
fund information 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.

                           AND RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN


                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES

         The accompanying financial statements of the Seabee Corporation Pension
            and Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") have been prepared on the
            accrual basis of accounting. The Plan is subject to the applicable
            provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
            as amended. Investments are stated at current value, which is based
            on the quoted market price.

         Effective January 1, 1996, the Company changed trustees from First of
            America Investment Corporation to CG Trust Company (a CIGNA
            company). As a result, the Plan assets were transferred into funds
            with comparable investment options administered by Connecticut
            General Life Insurance Company (a CIGNA company).

         In order to provide a variety of investment options, CIGNA has
            developed alliances with other companies, including Fidelity
            Investments, Warburg Pincus Funds, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. and
            Twentieth Century Investors, Inc. Plan assets are invested in a
            CIGNA separate account (measured in units), which holds investments
            in funds offered by these alliance companies.

         The investment funds offered by CIGNA through the separate account do
            not pay dividends or interest, nor do they produce realized or
            unrealized gains. Rather, the plan participates in investment
            earnings through an increase or decrease in the unit values of each
            fund. As a result, the funds' investment earnings are reported as
            net appreciation in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available
            for Plan Benefits, except for the Stock Fund in which the
            participants have a direct interest in the underlying stock.

         Conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
            management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
            reported amounts in the Plan's financial statements. Actual results
            may differ from those estimates.

(2)  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

         As a result of the acquisition of Seabee Corporation by Kaydon in
            September, 1995, the Seabee Corporation Employee Stock Ownership
            Plan ceased to operate as an employee stock ownership plan, and

            Seabee Corporation Pension and Retirement Savings Plan, a 401(k)
            profit-sharing plan. The amended plan provides for
            participant-directed investment of their accounts. Accordingly, the

(2)  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN, continued

         Seabee Corporation (the "Company" or "Employer"), a wholly-owned
            subsidiary of Kaydon Corporation, sponsors the Plan, a defined
            contribution plan. The following brief description of the Plan is
            provided for general information purposes only. Participants should
            refer to the Plan document, as amended, for more complete
            information.

         Plan amendment - Effective February 16, 1996, the plan was amended to
            include the adoption of the plan by Victor Fluid Power, Inc. which
            was acquired by Kaydon Corporation on February 1, 1996.

         Eligibility requirements - All employees of the Company who are 18
            years of age and have completed at least 1,000 hours of service
            during a one year period are eligible to participate in the Plan on
            the January 1st, April 1st, July 1st and October 1st coincident with
            or immediately following such one year period.

         Contributions - Beginning in 1996, participants may elect to make,
            through payroll deductions, tax-deferred contributions which may not
            exceed 15% of compensation. The maximum contributions for the year,
            which includes pre-tax, Company matching and discretionary profit
            sharing contributions is 25% of compensation less tax-deferred
            contributions. Under the terms of the Plan, the Company contributes
            to the Plan an amount equal to 25% of the contribution by each
            participant not to exceed $800. In addition, the Company may, with
            the approval of the Board of Directors, make discretionary
            contributions to the Plan. Discretionary employer contributions were
            approximately $160,000 and $200,000 during 1996 and 1995,
            respectively.

         Allocation of investment earnings - Individual accounts are maintained
            for each participant to reflect the participant's contributions, the
            Company's contributions, forfeitures, investment earnings and
            administrative expenses. Investment earnings are allocated based on
            each participant's relative account balance within the respective
            fund.

         Vesting - All participant contributions are fully vested and
            nonforfeitable. Company matching and discretionary contributions
            become fully vested and nonforfeitable either upon attainment of age
            65, upon the employee's death or disability or ratably over seven
            years of service, as defined by the Plan. Forfeitures are used to
            reduce Employer contributions.

(2)  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN, continued

            The Fidelity Advisor Growth Opportunities Fund invests primarily in
               common stocks and securities convertible into common stock. The
               Fund may also invest in other securities such as preferred stocks

               securities of domestic, foreign and multinational issuers.

            The Stock Fund invests solely in Kaydon Corporation Common Stock.

         Payment of benefits - Amounts credited to an individual participant's
            account are distributed at termination of employment, generally as a
            lump sum or in installments. Distributions may be deferred until the
            participant reaches the age of 65 if the value of the distribution
            exceeds $3,500.

         Administrative expenses - Although not required to do so, the Employer
            paid certain administrative expenses of the Plan during 1996. The
            remaining expenses were paid for out of the Plan assets by CG Trust
            Company

         Voting rights - Each participant is entitled to exercise voting rights
            attributable to the Kaydon Corporation common shares allocated to
            his or her account and is notified by the trustee prior to the time
            that such rights are to be exercised. The trustee is not permitted
            to vote any share for which instructions have not been given by a
            participant.

         Plan termination - The Company has the right to terminate the Plan at
            any time, although it has not expressed an intent to do so. Upon
            termination of the Plan, participants will become fully vested.
            Expenses arising from the termination would be allocated to the
            participants' accounts in accordance with the Plan and the Internal
            Revenue Code.

(3)  TRUST FUND

         A trust fund is maintained by the trustee for all purposes of the Plan;
            and the monies and other assets thereof are held, administered,
            invested and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan,
            as it may be amended from time to time, for the exclusive benefit of
            the participants and their beneficiaries.

(4)  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         Plan investments include interests in mutual funds managed by
            Connecticut General Life Insurance Company (a CIGNA company). CG
            Trust Company (a CIGNA company) is the trustee as defined by the
            Plan.

(5)  TAX STATUS

         During 1995, the Company restated the Plan to meet the requirements of
            the Tax Reform Act of 1986. The Internal Revenue Service issued a
            determination dated April 7, 1997, stating that the Plan was in
            accordance with applicable plan design requirements as of that date.
            The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter.
            However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's legal counsel believe
            that the Plan and underlying trust are currently designed and being
            operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the
            Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, they believe that the Plan was
            qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial
            statement date.

(6)  INVESTMENTS

         The fair market value of investments that represent 5% or more of the
            Plan's total net assets is as follows as of December 31,:

                        Independent Auditors' Report


Trustees
Seabee Corporation Employee
 Stock Ownership Plan
Hampton, Iowa  50441


         We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
plan benefits of the Seabee Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

         We conducted our 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.

         As discussed in Note 8, the financial statements have been reissued to
correct an error in the manner of presentation of benefit payments. Accordingly,
the 1995 and 1994 financial statements have been restated and an adjustment has
been made to net assets available for plan benefits at January 1, 1994.

         In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of
the Seabee Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan as of December 31, 1995 and
1994, and the changes in its net assets available for plan benefits for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

         Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental information
included in Schedule G- Financial Schedules (IRS Form 5500) is presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements but is 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 information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                        Notes to Financial Statements





Note 1:       Description of Plan

              The following description of the Seabee Corporation Employee Stock
              Ownership Plan provides only general information. Participants
              should refer to the plan agreement for a more complete description
              of the plan's provisions.

              1.    General.  The purpose of this plan is to enable 
                    participating employees of the Company and of any
                    participating affiliates to share in the growth and
                    prosperity of the Company and to provide participants with
                    an opportunity to accumulate capital for their future
                    economic security. The plan is designed to do this without
                    any deductions from participants' paychecks or without
                    calling upon them to invest their personal savings. A
                    primary purpose of the plan is to enable participants to
                    acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. Consequently,
                    employer contributions made to the trust will be primarily
                    invested in Company stock.

                    This plan, qualifies as an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, as
                    defined in Section 4975 (e)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code,
                    and is designed to qualify under Section 401 (a) of the
                    Internal Revenue Code. All assets acquired under this plan
                    as a result of employer contributions, income and other
                    additions to the trust will be administered, distributed,
                    forfeited and otherwise governed by the provisions of this
                    plan which is administered by the committee for the
                    exclusive benefit of participants in the plan and their
                    beneficiaries.

              2.    Contributions.  Each year the Company contributes to the 
                    plan an amount approved by the Board of Directors.
                    Participants do not contribute to the plan.

              3.    Participant Accounts.  Each participant's account is 
                    credited with an allocation of (a) the Company's
                    contribution, (b) plan earnings, and (c) forfeitures of
                    terminated participants' nonvested accounts. Allocations are
                    based on participant earnings. The benefit to which a
                    participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided
                    from the participant's account.

              4.    Vesting.  Vesting is based on years of qualifying service.  
                    In 1989 and thereafter a participant is 100 percent vested
                    after seven years of credited service, retirement at age 65,
                    or qualifying disability.

              5.    Payment of Benefits.  In the event of death or retirement, 
                    a participant may receive either a lump-sum amount
                    equal to the value of his or her account, or installments
                    based on the participants life expectancy or the joint life
                    expectancy of the participant and his or her designated
                    beneficiary.  In the event a participant ceases to
                    participate for reasons other than death or retirement and
                    has a plan benefit of less than $2,500, distribution shall
                    be in a lump-sum as soon as possible after the close of the
                    plan year in which the participant incurs a one-year break
                    in service.  For participants with a plan benefit of $2,500
                    or more, distribution shall be in a lump-sum as soon as
                    possible after the close of the plan year in which the
                    participant incurs a five-year break in service.


Note 2:       Summary of Accounting Policies

              Basis of Accounting

                 The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the
                 accrual method of accounting.

Note 2:       Summary of Accounting Policies (continued)

              Estimates

                 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
                 generally accepted accounting principles requires the plan
                 administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect
                 certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual
                 results may differ from those estimates.

              Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

                 The amounts shown in Note 3 for securities represent estimated
                 fair value. The investments on December 31, 1995 in mutual
                 funds are valued at quoted market price which represents the
                 net asset value of shares/units held by the plan at year-end.
                 The common shares of the Company on December 31, 1994 are
                 valued at fair value as determinant by independent appraisers.

                 Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date
                 basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
                 Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.


Note 3:       Investments

              The plan's investments are held by the trust fund's trustees. The
              following table presents the fair values of the investments at
              December 31, 1995 and 1994. After the sale of company stock (Note
              6), the investments are being held by a bank administered trust
              fund.

Note 4:       Plan Indebtness

              On July 25, 1994 the plan entered into a $300,000 term loan with a
              bank. The plan borrowed $250,000 against this note with $100,000
              used to pay off the note due September 30, 1994 and $150,000 used
              to pay retirement benefits. Repayment occurs with annual
              commitment stepdowns of $100,000 beginning September 30, 1995. The
              loan was guaranteed by Seabee Corporation with repayment to be
              made over a three year period. The loan interest rate was 1/4%
              over the banks base rate. At December 31, 1994, the interest rate
              was at 8-3/4%. The loan was paid in full prior to maturity on July
              14, 1995.

Note 5:       Plan Termination

              Although the Company has established the plan with the bona fide
              intention and expectation that it will be able to make
              contributions indefinitely, nevertheless, the Company shall not be
              under any obligation or liability to continue its contributions or
              to maintain the plan for any given length of time. The Company may
              in its sole discretion discontinue such contributions or terminate
              the plan in whole or in part in accordance with its provisions at
              any time without any liability for such discontinuance or
              termination. If the plan is not replaced by a comparable plan
              qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, the
              accounts of all participants affected by the termination, partial
              termination or discontinuance of contributions will become
              nonforfeitable. After termination of the plan, the Trustees and
              the Trust will continue until the plan benefit of each participant
              has been distributed. Plan benefits may be distributed promptly
              after they are computed or distribution may be deferred as
              provided in the plan, as the Trustees may direct.


Note 6:       Sale of Seabee Corporation Stock

              On September 15, 1995, Seabee Corporation's outstanding stock was
              acquired at $16.00 per share by Kaydon Corporation. Included in
              this transaction were all shares owned by the Seabee Corporation
              Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The sale of company stock resulted
              in realized appreciation of $1,191,635 over the estimated fair
              value of the company stock at December 31, 1994. As a result of
              the acquisition, the plan ceased to operate as an employee stock
              ownership plan and effective January 1, 1996 the Seabee
              Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan was amended and restated
              to become a 401(k) profit-sharing plan and its name was changed to
              The Seabee Corporation Pension and Retirement Savings Plan.

Note 8:       Reissue of December 31, 1995 and 1994 Financial Statements

              On June 19, 1997 the financial statements were reissued to reflect
              the removal of amounts allocated to the accounts of participates
              who have elected to withdraw from the plan. Net assets available
              for plan benefits at January 1, 1994 was increased by $366,481,
              which is the amount of benefits shown as payable to retired
              participants at December 31, 1993. The removal of this liability
              on the statements of net assets available for plan benefits is in
              conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Benefits
              paid to participants were restated to show cash payments made of
              $76,068 for 1995 and $348,351 for 1994.
