Re: Clutch Linings.

I recently wrote to the Ferodo Co. informing them that we have occasionally to overcome a slight tendency to jagger, had to use a lubricating mixture of half paraffin and half engine oil applied very sparingly to the fabric face, and asked them whether they had any recommendations for similar conditions.

I have now received a reply from the Ferodo Co. and attach copy of same hereto.
