| 1135 EXPERIMENTAL DEPARTMENT. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards}15/JH. 20th. July, 1939. Messrs. Ferodo Ltd., Chapel-en-le-Frith. For the attention of Mr. Shelton. Dear Sirs, Further to our conversation of a few weeks ago, we are despatching today under separate cover one dynamo with a pulley suitable for a V.165 belt. We anticipate that the pulleys originally used for Phantom crankshaft and fan will be sufficient to make up a representative triangulated drive, which will give us a fair idea of the life we can expect from Ferogrip belts with this form of drive. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
