usual disclaimer but please give him my regards

AFAIK they only sell imperial sizes in hex bar ? As I said, I really want metric sizes if at all possible.

Would help if you actually mention what sizes you want... Tom

Ain't easy.

Mallard, College, Speciality, JA Crew, Folkestone, Woking, K+S, GLR, Nogginend, MCM, metalsontheweb - none of the usual ME suspects stock it, though Folkstone do do 8 and 16 mm hex bar.

RS might do it, but I can't use their crappy website to check - if you have windows it might work for you.

Sorry I can't be more help.

Only square and round on RS.....

If you would say what size!

Hi Nick,

thanks for the reply, I am looking to buy some stock in various sizes from 3mm to say 16-20 mm or so.

Cheers,

The smallest you will get is 6mm. Have never seen smaller sizes. Alloy is AlCuMgPg. There is one in Germany selling that, but only 1m lengths (6mm hex, 1m long is just 4.80 EUR). But I don't know wether he is shipping to GB. His page is in German only. But if you can't get it on your island () I might help you.
