With this type of plug we would propose supplying a slightly different cleaner, which would go right down into the tube of mica and could be revolved at the same time being drawn upward and downward so as to clean the entire length of mica insulation. We shall be very interested to hear your further remarks on this subject, and would assure you that we are just as anxious as yourselves to supply your demands with the very best article it is possible to produce, and are continually experimenting with this end in view, We are, Dear Sirs, Yours faithfully, p.p THE ROBINHOOD ENGINEERING WORKS LTD. | ||
