ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. INSTRUCTIONS. To: FFC Order No.: PD 31 Customer's No.: X 8673 We have received from the stores two lots of Morganite, E.G.2 grade brushes, of the narrow type, for the Phantom dynamo. One lot, comprising eight sets to D 71256-7-8-9, are of standard design, and were, apparently, supplied to an order of Mr Coverley's for brushes for S.S. dynamos. The other lot are the three sets with the increased bevel angle to D 71907-08-09-10, ordered in EFC3/T16-10-28. The reason for Morganite brushes being obtained instead of the standard grade of Le-Carbone is, that an attempt is being made to use only British products; it being anticipated that Morganite brushes will be standardised on the Phantom as on the 20HP car. Signed: C.A.P. This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work. | ||
