UNIVERSAL GEAR BOX. SPIGOT BEARING.
Herewith is N.Sch.5205 shewing the Roller Spigot Bearing for the above box.
We have asked Hoffmann for particulars of a standard set up of rollers in a cage which would be sufficiently near this to enable it to be used, but they have nothing suitable, so we should proceed with the above drawing, a quotation for which has already been obtained from Hoffmanns.
