Ltd INDIA RUBBER MANUFACTURERS DAY & NIGHT MILLS MARKET HARBOROUGH ENGLAND September 16th 1936. Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd., Experimental Department, DERBY. Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. Leslie. We thank you for the interview granted to our Mr. Warner yesterday in connection with the manufacture of Rubber Blocks part No. FW.180, and note that it is most essential that the rubber should be considerably softer than the samples we have submitted, also that it is most important that complete adhesion should be made to the centre and outside fittings. We note that it is possible to have this done, and are, therefore, giving this matter further consideration, and hope to write you fully on the matter in the course of a post or so. In the meantime, we assure you always of our best services, and beg to remain, Yours faithfully, For THE HARBORO' RUBBER CO., LTD. Director. GMW/BEA: | ||
