| TO HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Copy to BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} ORIGINAL E2/M8.3.26. V3855 X8180 X8190 re. USE OF ALUMINIUM WASHER IN PLACE OF FIBRE. In reply to your memo. HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 7/LG5326., concerning BYZ/H3326., I am sorry but I do not recollect anything in connection with a point being raised by BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} concerning these washers. As a matter of fact we are recommending the use of soft aluminium washers in connection with the revised spherical unions/nuts, and we should consider they were equally suitable for the drain pipe union in question.
