| contd :- -2- We would remind you that shafts and gears are never finally ground after nitro hardening. Tappets alone have their surfaces ground to a depth of from .002 to .0035". In this case the surface blows are violent and one is obliged to remove this depth of outer layer. Yours faithfully, FOR : AUBERT & DUVAL. | ||
