| X328 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.17/KW. 13th February, 1936. Messrs. Silentbloc Ltd., Victoria Gardens, Ladbroke Road, Notting Hill Gate, London, W.11. For the attention of Mr. Jelley. Dear Sirs, We thank you for the information contained in your letter of the 6th inst., and also for returning our rubber. We are deciding to go into production with your original rubber F.360106. The attached print N.Sch. 4764 shows our version. Although we intend to buy the complete unit from you, we should like detail drawings giving the exact dimensions of the parts, so that we can make exactly similar drawings. Will you please send these by return of post. The flexibility we require is like unit 'A'. When will the 6 other units be completed, and what is the material for the inner sleeve ? Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
