W.L.HARRIS SILENTBLOC LIMITED TELEGRAMS SILENTBLOC, NOTTARCH, LONDON VICTORIA GARDENS, LADBROKE ROAD NOTTING HILL GATE LONDON, W.11 TELEPHONE PARK 9821 (4 LINES) Messrs.Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. 21st June, 1937. SWJ/JL. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.4/JH. Dear Sirs, We are enclosing copies of our drawings S.372221, M.372222 and S.372223. These drawings show suggestions for suitable Silentbloc Bearings for the springs shown on your drawing No.Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}391, which you enclosed with your letter of the 12th instant. You will see that we have shown various types of shackle and spring eye anchorage. In the case of the over-hung pin type shown on drawing No.S.372223, you may consider it desirable to increase the pin diameter and the Silentbloc Bearing in this case will, of course, have to be larger. The approximate prices of the sizes shown are 3/3d.each.nett to 3/9d.each.nett. Yours faithfully, SILENTBLOC LIMITED TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT ENC.Drawings. | ||
