| 1029 March 24th.1938 RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}5/AP. New-Hudson Ltd., Icknield Street, BIRMINGHAM 18. For the attention of Mr.Fraser. Dear Sirs, We are returning your print GB.3328 as we want the dimension marked in red altering from 0.343 ± 5 to 0.375" ± 5. This is because the Thackray washer is at present trapped and the expander prevented from sliding. It is important that the diameter of the two bossess (0.437") shall be accurately maintained when a die casting: otherwise they will have to be machined. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
