We wish to produce for Experimental use three bore sizes of the induction pipe RE.155. Will you therefore supply the necessary 'inked-in' prints to give internal bores of 1.00" and 1.200". This is done by inserting sheet lead into the core box. The required thickness of lead, can, if necessary, be produced by rolling existing sheets down to the size required. 4 prints off each will be required. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C.
