X4469 H12/EA27.11.28. Laboratory. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c to RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Re Special Nitralloy Steel. Your Ref. BY/EM2/K.26.11.28. We would prefer to carry out some more tests on the bar Nitralloy (on order) before undertaking the production of tappets. We conclude that the bar material will be produced from the same cast of material as the experimental pieces. Hl. HE | ||
