With reference to your memo St2/TB/21.3.23, the copper asbestos washer which was introduced some considerable time ago, certainly pre-war, was brought in to avoid exhaust blows. There is really no objection to your removing this providing a satisfactory job can be obtained without it. In the meantime, we are asking the Experimental Department to give this matter consideration. EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} /Thn. | ||
