| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} x 3806 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn{Mr Robinson}3/LG14. 8. 28. CENTRALISED LUBRICATION. X3806 X3875 We attach a note from GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} which is self explanatory. Will you please consider the possibility of increasing the area of the washers provided on the system. Presumably these washers could also be made in duralumin or other alloy having a higher brinell to prevent them spreading. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
