In this connection we regret the delay which has been occasioned, but are pleased to advise that we now have all the necessary equipment to hand, and in fact the 11" size clutches are now being built with castellated nuts; we have a further four 10" Clutches built up without the castellation after which subsequent deliveries of this size will be in accordance with your latest requirements.
