( COPY ) CJ2/IW10214. Re Jaggering Clutches. EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} With reference to the attached memorandum re. Jaggering Clutches, as until we have ascertained the method of making the clutch more oil retaining and have introduced it into the standard manufacture, the only cure for the jaggering appears to be the use of the damped spring type of coupling, the question whether this cure should be at once introduced into the standard manufacture must be considered side by side with the introduction of this type of coupling to cure the vibration.
