| X3035 EFC4/T. 4th June, 1924. Messrs. Batterby & Hefford, 77a Siddals Road, Derby. X.3035 X.1623 Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter GSB/RJC. of the 3rd inst., in answer to our EFC1/T of the 2nd inst. We regret that our enquiry was of a rather vague nature. We would state, however, that the information we thought you might be kind enough to give us was as regards suitable size and insulation of wire, i.e. a specification of the actual wire which it would be suitable to order for this purpose. We are well aware of the properties of nichrome, as a material, having used it for a great many purposes. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
