Dear Sirs, Following the writers conversation with you on Wednesday with regard to the Split Gits Seal built in your front cover, we have checked your blue print and we find that the diameter of the shaft where the seal runs is 2.850". Upon checking up the seal we find also that this is quite correct and therefore we have despatched same to you under separate cover. We shall be very glad if you would let us have another front cover casting so that we can build up the other seal which you ordered. Yours faithfully, For CHARLES WESTON & CO.LTD. Aiers | ||
