MONEL METAL.

During our last visit to W.W. R. {Sir Henry Royce} wished us to obtain for him the coefficient of expansion for monel metal. It was proposed to use monel metal tubes in Goshawk cylinders to prevent corrosion.

Could you please obtain particulars of monel metal.
We recommend that you send one of the Booklets to W.W.
