Dear Sirs, Many thanks for your letter of the 23rd. and we have received the washers and rings.

We should like to have a quotation for the washers and rubber rings etc. in quantities of 300 and should also be glad to know if you supply complete gland assemblies, locking pins, springs etc. and if so the price in the above quantities.
