Comparing a sample 'Jeavons Gaiter' with the 'Wefco' gaiter, preferring one with lubricators to fit an 'Enots' grease-gun.

| To Roy. {Sir Henry Royce} from Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X/5745 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 2/LG23.1.23. GAITERS FOR SPRINGS. With reference to the sample Jeavons Gaiter. We do not consider this method of lacing is as neat or as effective as the 'Wefco'. We are also not very pleased with their Gaiter Charger. There is nothing to register the charger in the lubricator. We much prefer that the gaiters should have lubricators so that they can be made to fit the Enots grease-gun. We are returning to you the sample Gaiter and Charger. | ||
