That is tlie acc urac y witti -wtiicli we draw

OKI* ''Wire; but it is also symbolical of the care and precision with which the
smallest stage of each of our processes and tests is carried out. Our knowledge of working
conditions and the best design and quality of rope to suit them, is world-wide and com-
prehensive. We are the only British Wire Rope Manufacturers who make ropes from the pig-
iron upwards. Therefore we are the only British Makers who can directly control and apply
our knowledge of the essentials to suit the user’s conditions of work, throughout every process—

1.	STEEL MAKING	3. WIRE DRAWING	5- THE CONSTRUCTION

2.	ROD ROLLING	4. THE DESIGN	6. THE SPINNING.

The ultimate production is scientifically accurate, and of highest practical efficiency, being
expressly made THROUGHOUT with the user’s requirements always in view.
