Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 3rd instant with regard to Facings in S6424 quality which we despatched to you. We note that you are requiring two discs to Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}165 in our No.6 quality, but we were of the opinion that the discs in S6424 to Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}165 would be suitable. However, if you are still in need of two discs in No.6 quality we will put these in hand on receipt of your further instructions, and they will be sent to you as soon as possible after our Works re-open on August 11th. Yours faithfully, FERODO LIMITED. [Signature] Sales Department. | ||
