| - 2 - CONCLUSIONS. The wear experienced with internally chromium plated liners shows no improvement over the standard S/HC material. Some difficulty is experienced in obtaining satisfactory adhesion and partial seizure has occurred while running. As a result of the investigation, tests on internally chromium plated liners have been discontinued for the present. A laboratory report on the liner is attached. ------------ Wd. {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wd. {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} /R.V.Mallinson. Attach: C.Report.
