| RANSOME & MARLES BEARING Co., Ltd. - 2 - Messrs. Rolls Royce, Limited, D E R B Y . 19-11-35. With regard to the question of increasing the capacity of the bearing, without altering the external dimensions, we are looking into this carefully, and as one of the limiting factors is the width of the cage, we should be glad if you could let us have an assembly drawing outlining the surrounding components, so that we can better judge as to the amount of space possible, into which we may extend the cage. On receipt of this we will go into the matter further, and as instructed, are returning under separate cover the bearing, which you forwarded for our inspection. Always assuring you of our best attention, We are, Yours faithfully, RANSOME & MARLES BEARING CO. LTD. [Signature] MANAGING DIRECTOR. Under separate cover: Bearing returned 2/MDJT.35. | ||
