Continuation of letter from VANDERVELL PRODUCTS LTD. dated 14th January, 1938.
To Messrs.Rolls-Royce, Ltd.

In conclusion, we can safely say that this is the best material of which we know in connection with Steering Pivot Pins. The chances of seizure on an oscillating shaft are practically impossible, owing to the high lead content

Yours faithfully,

VANDERVELL PRODUCTS LIMITED,

Director.
