| V5420 To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}9/BE. 15.10.25. RE DEFLECTION TESTS ON INDIA FRONT AXLE We attach graphs and particulars of Deflection Tests carried out on the India Front Axle. The Axle was lined out before test and also after test. This clearly indicates the point where maximum deflection has occurred. Tests were carried out on each end of the Axle and the graphs and Axle have been marked I & 2 so that results can be compared. The Axle in question has been placed in the Experimental Stores ready in case you decide to send same to W.W. RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} | ||
