Dear Sirs,

We thank you for your telephoned enquiry of this afternoon, asking for samples of 3/16", or alternatively, 1/4" bore Flexible Tubing to carry cold oil at a pressure of 50 lbs. per square inch.

We are putting in hand a sample of our 3/16" bore Type "PX" tubing, and also one of our 1/4" bore Type "MX{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer}" tubing, fitted with 1/4" gas unions, for your examination.

We hope to despatch these to you tomorrow, and will also include our quotation for the supply of quantities of 100, and alternatively, 500 of each.

Yours faithfully,

SUPERFLEXIT LIMITED.

Director.
