A collaboration agreement with VALCO, FRANCE for the manufacture of diaphragm clutches was also signed.

1984: The working was adversely affected due to sluggish market conditions, keen competition, escalation in the cost of inputs, higher interest burden and steep increase in the Dollar Rupee parity. During the year application was filed for Industrial licence for the manufacture of speciality industrial gaskets in technical collaboration with FLEXITALLIC LTD., U.K.
1986: Manufacture of diaphragm clutches at Jalna commenced.
1989-90:New markets were identified for its products and new items were added to its range of exports.
