Dear Sirs,

Brass Piping for Chassis Lubrication.

With reference to the above, which you supply for our various chassis.

Will you please enlighten us in detail as to the procedure of producing this piping.

We are interested to know the size of tube in the first place and the size when finally drawn, also the sweating temperature to prevent scaling, etc.

This information is required for record purposes.

Thanking you.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
