Rig Steering Box.

Will you please fit to the rig steering box the roller follower, inner races, and distance piece which we have handed to H.P.S. These parts have had the bearing tracks ground by Ransome & Marles and the inner races are made of their standard ball bearing steel hardened throughout.

The distance piece will require the bore increased to 0.500 dia.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/F.J.Hardy.
