| To ROY{Sir Henry Royce}/AW. from EFC. Y2894 EFC3/T21.10.27. X. 2894. TUNGSTEN CONTACT POINTS. O/N.54733. With reference to the 200 pairs of points which have been ordered from Messrs. Reynolds for production, would you please arrange to have six pairs allotted to the Expl.Dept. for tungsten point experiments. It is understood that the contact points for the lever are to be riveted on by us. Although we have a number of levers with contact points already riveted on, for some of our special levers we require the loose contact points which can be riveted on by ourselves. We should be pleased if you would try and obtain these at the very earliest possible moment. EFC. | ||
