SHOCK DAMPERS. X235 X1588

In confirmation of our verbal conversation yesterday, we wish the new type shock dampers to be fitted with compressor oil. As we believe this name covers a certain amount of variation in the oil, we have sent a sample of the type with which we are satisfied, into the Laboratory for analysis so that we can ensure no confusion will arise in the future.
