Asquith,
I wonder if they are the same company who made the Taylor clutches?

“ Taylor “ clutches were a totally different company. They were based in the same town as me ( Rochdale ) and I had lots of dealings with them over the years. Many British machine tool makers used their clutches.
They were taken over by a US company and closed down a few years later. This would be about 25 years ago now. The factory still stands and you can see the building from the motorway as you approach junction 20 coming from Manchester towards Leeds.
Regards Tyrone.
