Does anyone have an idea where I could obtain 310S stainless round bar and seamless tube? I'm looking for diameters up to 4" in both.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Carl.

Many thanks indeed for taking the time to reply. I had previously tried to contact Schoeller Bleckman and Aircraft Materials UK Ltd, neither of whom have returned my emails. I can understand if they don't do prototype quantities. They are in the business of selling metals though, so you'd think they would at least get back to me to find out how much I need.

The best way to deal with many commercial businesses is to call them. Email is to passive for many.

Hello Carl,

Sadly many businesses are spammed out with email and have given up trying to salvage any gold from the dross. If they have a reply service through their website that will usually get attention, but as has been said, the direct approach is the one to use

Another possible supplier is one I've used with success http://www.metals4U.co.uk with these people you can order on line or by phone and they will cater for smaller orders.

Hello Gents,

Thank you for all your replies. The two companies I tried to contact had email reply dervices in their contact pages. I'd say that 90% of the firms I've got in touch with in the past (not just for metals) have got back to me in this way. I take your point about spam though. However you'd think if they have an email reply service with a standard form to fill in then that should obviate the problem? Oh well.

Thanks again for all the replies. I will look into tw metals.

I've just bozo'd someone who created a new account just to post a couple of links to a steel fabrication and plate company.

What kind of idiot uses <name of search engine optimisation company>@gmail.com as their email address?

I presume that it was the bit before the @ which Neil felt made the poster some kind of idiot. … I'm sure he meant no offence to gmail account holders in general.
