Will you please have a .062" radius added to each side of the location diameter on the above collets to eliminate any picking up on sides due to any slight inaccuracy or mis-alignment. We understand this has already been incorporated. This note is merely confirmation of a request by the Expl. Dept. E/LGF. | ||
