To EFC. from R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to CJ. X3573 R7/G29.9.21. X.3513 - COMPARATIVE TESTS OF BAKELITE AND "ELO" MOULDINGS. Thank you for your report (EFC3/T15.9.21) + Specific gravity is less than we thought, and is interesting. We should be O.K. with bakelite. We are not quite clear as to whether tracking is bad enough to require some special treatment for distributor parts. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
