Dear Sirs, We have an experimental job in hand in which we should like to make use of Bowden cable. We require two pieces, each 18" long, of your No. T.4 cable, the ends to be screwed 5/16 22TPI RH{R. Hollingworth}, and the outer casing held in ends like PN.{Mr Northey}3918 but smaller to suit. We will weld these ourselves to the necessary brackets. We hope you will let us have these as soon as possible. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
