I know it is a strange request, but I need to find a local supplier (SE ESSEX) of 5 or 6mm mild steel bar, I need about 100 18" lengths, best price I have found so far is over �100 +VAT which seems a lot to me?
Cheers

Did you say Steel Bands mate
Is Dan Dan your stage name
Ade are you talking bar as in round and not flat bar? If so you will be looking at around �90 for what you need - before any cutting charges, so if its not much over �100 probably not a bad price.
Thanks, yes round, unless flat would be cheaper? But least I know the price is about right.
PS thanks JF

I’ve used http://www.metals4u.co.uk in the past. Not sure how cheap they are but its a handy way of getting what I was after.
Thanks guys I shall try them
Ade hold your horses, my mate I think has some 6mm kicking about I can get them dropped off. I’ll confirm later, �50 I think.
There is no absolute rush for these so I can wait, cheers JF
