| X 4322 W/S. {Derby Works / Sales} Gr. {George Ratcliffe} EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} /McM4/DJ15.1.21. With reference to the Lopdell Water pipe clips sent to us some time ago for testing, we attach hereto copy of report from our Experimental Dept. reference Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /TMW4/LG14.1.21. We have retained the two clips referred to in this report for further trial. You will remember the type "B" clip sent to us, was not of a suitable size for use on our chassis. If you could obtain one or two clips of the correct size for 1 3/4" diameter, we could fit them to a chassis for trial, as they certainly seem to be an improvement on the type we have been experimenting with.
