| 1906 5th December, 1940. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Clm. {D. D. Clapham} 4/ET. BRITISH BELTING & ASBESTOS, Ltd., CLECKHEATON. Yorks. Ref. IND:SM/HBP. Dear Sirs, We were very glad to receive 4 yards of 1¼" wide "Scandilex" Belting, and we think it should prove suitable for our purpose. We are at present testing it, rather a slow process during wartime, and we will let you know at the conclusion of our tests, if the Belting is satisfactory. In the meantime, we should like a further supply of Belting, and would suggest a roll of about 12 yards. Yours faithfully, | ||
