Small pieces of A4 stainless steel required

[LORDNELSON]

I need to locate two pieces of stainless steel sheet of A4 specification. Size about 100x100x3 mm. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Preferably in the West Sussex/East Hampshire area. Thank you.

Any manufacturers / installers or commercial kitchens near you? Likely to be cheaper than any boaty source. One of the lads in our local place made up a pair of dinghy fairleads for me one lunchtime and had to be persuaded to accept the price of a couple of pints.

I use www.metalsontheweb.com lots. Excellent service, fast mail order.

Many thanks, sounds just what I require!

 

[LORDNELSON]

Sounds good but how does one know it is A4 stainless steel?

 

[Thistle]

Just ask!

Solent Chandlery in Gosport (yellow building on A32 RHS just before Campers) has usually got A4 odd pieces (you need to ask to go upstairs, but don't need an old raincoat ;-)). When I'm there I just pick up a few bits and add them to my collection.

What is A4 sheet. I thought A4 was used only for bolts.
The stainless I buy is 303 (round), 304 and 316 (any section).

In the Paper trade it is 210mmx297mm

If you pop into see Chris at Chi marina, he is next door to Chris Holman (the rigger), he will supply what you need very reasonably. I use him all the time for those little jobs in metal, he is a really nice guy. But send your wife for the best service! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Chris obviously has a great deal to recommend him1

316 is A4. Same thing

Ageed. Chris in that shed at Chi is excellent. He made lots of bits for us. Nice folk and excellent s/s fabrication work, and good prices
