Pure Iron source (rod or bar) needed (USA)

May 30, 2008 5 Replies

I'm looking for a few feet of at least 99.5% pure iron rod or bar, any size from at least 1/4" square or round, but not over 1/2" thick. I need it for element collectors looking for pure samples of various metals. I found this link on google:

But they require a company account to order from them. (And also has a minimum), The



10 x 20mm size looks ideal, but I need a source willing to sell small amounts to anybody.

Why don't you try ?

A basic low-carbon steel would, I believe, meet your requirements.

Okay let's see how about these?

Hi If you looking for good source of pure iron profile stock, you can visit this company

,they are supplying high purity iron billet but i saw they have also profiles in stock.

If you can use short pieces try the various evaporation materials vendors: A Google search will turn up many. The purities run much higher than you're asking for (five nines is common) and the prices might be a jolt, but it's available in slugs, usually quarter by half inch or thereabouts.

Hope this helps,
