Supplier of small section steel bar????

I want a small quantity of BMS, say 3mm x 3mm or 3mm x 4mm, about 1000mm in short, straight, lengths. The usual suppliers for 7mm appear to offer only non-ferrous stock... unless Barry (@lankytank) has any?

Apart from A J Reeves, what other suppliers are there for small scale engineering?

thank you, Graham

Edwards Metals Ltd in Birmingham might be suitable, I've recently bought nickel silver strip from them without difficulty, Noggin End Metals is another.

A quick check on ebay gives a few suppliers. The search was for '3mm x 3mm steel bar -flat -stainless' and then narrowed down by selecting 'Metal and Alloy square bars'. Other more refined searches might be better but it worked. This brought up an ebay seller called 'hpcgears' and googling HPC gears brought up the company's address in Chesterfield. No doubt there are others who could be found this way. Hope this is of some use.

Have you tried searching for 'key steel' or keysteel'? Should be able to find down to 1.5mm x 300mm lengths. Some is plated, others bms.

Graham (@Dog Star) - if you're going to Telford (which, of course, you will be) & you need any bits drop me an email beforehand & I'll make sure it's ready for you.

This also applies to anyone else who's going to be shopping at Telford in a fortnights time.

BUT..... if anyone tries to contact me next week (w/c 19th) - I'll not be at my desk...…. She's making me go on holiday!?!
