1021 26th March, 1941. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.5/ET. Messrs. A.{Mr Adams} ROBERTSON & Sons, Deykin Avenue - Witton, BIRMINGHAM. Dear Sirs, We thank you for the samples of rubber sections that you have sent us. We shall find these most useful for reference purposes. Regarding rubber drain tubing, we are sorry that the two samples which you sent us are not the size that we shall be wanting. We should be obliged if you would let us know if you have any with 1/8" diameter hole and 3/8" outside diameter, in a hard rubber that will not kink. At a later date, we shall be wanting sufficient of this material for two sample bodies. Thanking you, Yours faithfully, | ||
