                                        PART I


          Item 1.   Business.
                    ---------
                    The  Company is  in three  businesses:   Bowman Distri-
          bution,  a  distributor  of  consumable  repair  and  replacement
          products  for  industrial,  heavy  equipment,  and transportation
          maintenance   markets;  Associated  Spring,  a  manufacturer  and
          distributor  of  custom-made  springs and  other  close-tolerance
          engineered metal components; and Barnes Aerospace, a manufacturer
          of precision machined and  fabricated assemblies for the aircraft
          and  aerospace  industries  and   a  refurbisher  of  jet  engine
          components.*

                    Bowman Distribution.  Bowman Distribution is engaged in
                    -------------------
          distributing in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and
          France  a  variety  of  replacement  parts  and  other  products,
          including  fasteners and  special  purpose  hardware,  automotive
          parts,  automotive specialties  and accessories,  general purpose
          electric   and  gas  welding   supplies,  industrial  maintenance
          supplies,  and industrial aerosols such as adhesives, lubricants,
          and sealants.

                    The products  sold by Bowman Distribution  are, for the
          most part, not manufactured by the Company, but are obtained from
          a number of outside suppliers.  The vast majority of the products
          are repackaged and sold under Bowman's labels.

                    Sales by  Bowman Distribution in the  United States and
          Canada are  primarily to  industrial plants, chemical  and petro-
          chemical  process  industries,   contractors,  new  car  dealers,
          garages,  service  stations,  operators of  vehicle  fleets,  and
          airline ground maintenance facilities.

                    In  1992, the  Company  sold substantially  all of  the
          assets of the Pioneer division of Bowman.

                    Associated Spring.  Associated Spring manufactures and 
                    -----------------
          distributes a wide  variety of custom metal  parts for mechanical
          purposes.   It is equipped  to produce practically  every type of
          spring requiring  precision engineering, as well  as an extensive
          variety of precision metal components and assemblies.  Its 

                                 
          -----------------------
                    *As used in this annual report, "Company" refers to the
          registrant and  its consolidated  subsidiaries  except where  the
          context  requires  otherwise,  and  "Associated  Spring," "Barnes
          Aerospace," and "Bowman Distribution"  refer to the above-defined
          businesses, but not to separate corporate entities.



                                        - 1 -



          products range  in size from fine hairsprings  for instruments to
          large  springs for  heavy machinery,  and its  output of  a given
          metal  part  may  vary in  amount  from a  few  units  to several
          million.   Associated Spring does not produce leaf springs or bed
          springs.

                    Associated Spring's custom metal  parts are sold in the
          United States  and through the Company's  foreign subsidiaries to
          manufacturers in  many industries, chiefly for  use as components
          in their own  products.   Custom metal parts  are sold  primarily
          through Associated  Spring's sales  employees.   In  view of  the
          diversity of  functions  which Associated  Spring's custom  metal
          parts  perform, Associated  Spring's output  is characterized  by
          little standardization, with the major portion being manufactured
          to customer specifications.

                    The   automotive   and   automotive  parts   industries
          constitute Associated  Spring's largest single custom metal parts
          market.    Other  important  outlets  include   manufacturers  of
          industrial and textile machinery,  motors, generators, meters and
          other electrical  and electronic equipment,  aircraft, diesel and
          other  internal  combustion  engines,  household  appliances  and
          fixtures,  hardware,  office  equipment, agricultural  equipment,
          railroad  equipment, general machinery,  firearms, and scientific
          instruments.

                    The Associated Spring Distribution division  is engaged
          in  the distribution of industrial  products to the  tool and die
          market, of  which die  springs manufactured by  Associated Spring
          are the  principal item.   It  also distributes  certain standard
          parts manufactured by  Associated Spring consisting primarily  of
          stock  wire and flat springs  which are sold  under the Company's
          SPEC  registered  trademark.     The  Company  has  an  exclusive
          marketing agreement with Stroemsholmens  Mekaniska Verkstad AB to
          market Kaller nitrogen  gas springs and systems  in North America
          and other specified countries.

                    Associated Spring also  has manufacturing operations in
          Brazil,  Canada,   Mexico,   and  Singapore,   and   distribution
          operations  in the  United  Kingdom and  France.   In  1992,  the
          Company closed  its spring  manufacturing plant in  Dayton, Ohio.
          In 1993,  the Company  closed its spring  manufacturing plant  in
          Memphis,  Tennessee  and  transferred  the  warehouse  operations
          conducted  in Corry,  Pennsylvania  to a  new warehouse  facility
          located  in Ypsilanti, Michigan.   In 1994, it  closed its spring
          manufacturing  plants  in  Gardena,  California,  and  Monterrey,
          Mexico.  The Company has  retained a minority interest of  15% in
          its former subsidiary in Argentina.

                    The Company is a partner in a joint venture corporation
          in  the United States  with NHK Spring  Co., Ltd. of  Japan.  The
          joint  venture  corporation,  NHK-Associated   Spring  Suspension
          Components

                    Barnes Aerospace.  Barnes Aerospace is engaged in the 
                    ----------------
          advanced fabrication  and precision  machining of  components for
          jet engines and  airframes as well as the  repair and overhaul of
          jet engine components.  Windsor Manufacturing, Windsor Airmotive,
          and Advanced Fabrications constitute the Barnes Aerospace Group.

                    Windsor   Manufacturing   manufactures   machined   and
          fabricated  parts as well as  assemblies.  It  specializes in the
          machining  of  difficult-to-process aircraft  engine superalloys.

          creep-feed  grinding, and automated deburring.  Customers include
          gas turbine engine manufacturers for commercial and military jets
          as well as  land-based turbines.  In 1993,  the operations of the
          Company's Central  Metal  Products plant  were consolidated  with
          Windsor Manufacturing.

                    Windsor  Airmotive  specializes  in   refurbishing  jet
          engine components.   Electron beam  welding and plasma  spray are
          two of the major  processes used in this division,  and customers
          include approximately  30 airlines  world-wide and the  military.
          Windsor Airmotive also has a facility in Singapore.

          processes including superplastic forming and diffusion bonding.

                    Segment  Analysis.The analysis of the Company's revenue
                    -----------------
          from  sales  to  unaffiliated  customers, operating  income,  and
          identifiable  assets by  industry segments  and geographic  areas
          appearing on  pages 26 and 27 of the Company's 1994 Annual Report
          to  Stockholders,  included as  Exhibit  13  to this  report,  is
          incorporated by reference.

                    Competition.  The Company competes with many other 
                    -----------
          companies, large and  small, engaged in the  manufacture and sale
          of  custom metal  parts  (including aerospace  components).   The
          Company  believes  Associated  Spring  is  the  largest  domestic
          manufacturer of precision  springs used for  mechanical purposes.
          The Company also faces active competition in the products sold by
          Bowman 

                                        - 3 -



          Distribution.    The principal  methods  of  competition for  the
          Company's  three  businesses  include  service,  quality,  price,
          reliability of supply, and also, in the case of Associated Spring
          and Barnes Aerospace, technology and design.

                    Backlog. The backlog of the Company's orders believed to
                    -------
          be firm amounted to $108,143,000 at  the end of 1994, as compared
          with $102,596,000  at  the end  of 1993.   Of  the 1994  year-end
          backlog, $53,622,000  is  attributable to  the  Barnes  Aerospace
          Group  and all of the  balance is attributable  to the Associated
          Spring Group.   $16,067,000 of Barnes Aerospace's  backlog is not
          expected  to  be  shipped in  1995.    Substantially  all of  the
          remainder  of the  Company's  backlog is  expected to  be shipped
          during 1995.

                    Raw Materials and Customers.  None of the Company's 
                    ---------------------------
          divisions  or groups are dependent upon any single source for any
          of  their principal raw materials or products for resale, and all
          such  materials  and products  are  readily  available.   No  one
          customer  accounted for  more than  10% of  total sales  in 1994.
          Automotive manufacturers  continue to  be important customers  of
          Associated Spring.  Sales by Barnes Aerospace to two domestic jet
          engine  manufacturers  accounted  for approximately  50%  of  its
          business.   Bowman Distribution is not  dependent on any one or a
          few customers for a significant portion of its sales.

                    Research and Development.  Although most of the products
                    ------------------------
          manufactured  by  the  Company  are  custom  parts  made  to  the
          customers' specifications,  the Company is  engaged in continuing
          efforts aimed at discovering  and implementing new knowledge that
          is useful  in developing  new products  or services  or improving
          significantly an existing product or service.   The Company spent
          approximately   $2,640,000  on   its  research   and  development
          activities in 1994, as  compared to expenditures of approximately
          $1,846,000  in  1993  and $1,145,000  in  1992.    There were  no
          significant    customer-sponsored   research    and   development
          activities   in   1994.     Barnes   Aerospace   divisions  spent
          approximately $495,000 in 1993 on customer-sponsored research and
          development  activities compared to expenditures of approximately
          $6,882,000 in 1992.

                    Patents and Trademarks.  Patents, licenses, franchises 
                    ----------------------
          and  concessions  are  not  material  to  any  of  the  Company's
          businesses.

                    Employees.  As of the date of this report, the Company 
                    ---------
          employs approximately 4,200 persons.

                    Environmental  Laws.  Compliance with federal, state, and
                    ------------------
          local  laws  which have  been enacted  or adopted  regulating the
          discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating
          to  the  protection of  the environment  has  not had  a material
          effect and is  not expected  to have a  material effect upon  the
          capital expenditures, earnings,  or competitive  position of  the
          Company.

          Item 2.   Properties.
                    ----------
                    The Company  and  its Canadian  subsidiary  operate  12
          manufacturing  plants  and  15 warehouses  at  various  locations
          throughout  the United  States and  Canada, of  which all  of the
          plants and 6  of the warehouses are owned in  fee, and the others
          are leased.   Of the properties which  are owned, none is subject
          to any encumbrance.  The Company's other foreign subsidiaries own
          or lease  plant or warehouse  facilities in  the countries  where
          their  operations are  conducted.   The  listing of  the facility
          locations of each  of the Company's  businesses contained in  the
          Directory  of Operations  on the  inside back  cover of  the 1994
          Annual  Report to Stockholders,  included as  Exhibit 13  to this
          report, is incorporated by reference.

                    The  Company  believes  that   its  owned  and   leased
          properties  have been adequately  maintained, are in satisfactory
          operating condition,  are suitable and adequate  for the business
          activities  conducted  therein,  and  have  productive capacities
          sufficient to meet current needs.


          Item 3.   Legal Proceedings.
                    -----------------
                    There  are no  material  pending  legal proceedings  to
          which the  Company or any of  its subsidiaries is a  party, or of
          which any of their property is the subject.


          Item 4.   Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
                    ---------------------------------------------------
                    No matter  was submitted  during the fourth  quarter of

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS ON
                            FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULE




          To the Board of Directors
          of Barnes Group Inc.


          Our audit of the  consolidated financial statements referred to
          in our report  dated January 23,  1995 appearing on page  28 of
          the 1994  Annual Report  to Stockholders of  Barnes Group  Inc.
          (which  report  and   consolidated  financial  statements   are
          incorporated by reference  in this Annual Report  on Form 10-K)
          also included an audit of the Financial  Statement Schedule for
          the year ended  December 31, 1994 listed in  Item 14(a) of this
          Form 10-K.  In  our opinion, this Financial Statement  Schedule
          presents fairly, in all  material respects, the information set
          forth  therein  when  read  in  conjunction  with  the  related
          consolidated financial statements.

                           REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS




          Stockholders and Board of Directors
          Barnes Group Inc.


          We have audited the consolidated  balance sheet of Barnes Group
          Inc.  as  of December  31,  1993 and  the  related consolidated
          statements of  income, stockholders' equity and  cash flows for
          each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1993.
          Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed 
          in the Index at Item 14(a) for each of the two years in the period
          ended December 31, 1993.  These financial statements and schedule
          are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our 
          responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
          statements and schedule 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.

          In our opinion, the  consolidated financial statements referred
          to  above  present  fairly,   in  all  material  respects,  the
          consolidated  financial  position  of   Barnes  Group  Inc.  at
          December  31,  1993  and   the  consolidated  results  of  its 
          operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the
          period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally
          accepted accounting principles.  Also, in our opinion, the
          related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation
          to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly
          in all material respects the information set forth therein.

          As  discussed   in  Note   1  to  the   consolidated  financial
          statements, the   Company  changed  its  methods  of accounting
          for income taxes and for certain postretirement and postemployment
          benefits in the year ended December 31, 1992.
