A.26 10 .895%
A.27 12 .905%
A.28 15 .95%

You will see from the above that we are within approximately .05% of your findings and your suggestion that the magnesium content should be raised possibly 1 to 1.1% on virgin material as supplied by you will be very necessary in future.

Yours faithfully,
For WELLWORTHY PISTON RINGS LTD.,

Technical Manager.
