2.5mm Stainless sheet 304 or 316

[Milkybars]

Would anyone have a smallish sheet (200x300 or similar) of this lying around, that could be liberated for beer tokens
Seems not a popular thickness, and stuggling to find small quantities (other than RS who want a F****ing fortune)
All assistance greatfully recieved.. orders off ebay have produced 1.6 and 2mm ..when allegedly its 2.5

Do you have any companies around you that do laser cutting of sheet metal as there primary business? These types of companies can have lots of different types of materials in as they have such a wide client base that use many different grades and thicknesses of steel.

You being able to collect will make a big difference as chances are they won't normally send out such small orders.

Another company to look for would be those that predominantly work in stainless steel. Companies making catering equipment such as canopies or ovens etc.

Good luck with your search.

Is it worth searching for it in old money (i.e. gauge). I think 2.5mm is 12g. That might find some oddly-listed things.

Cromwell seem to have it, so maybe Zoro with discount will also have it:

@Milkybars I might have a small bit of stainless of that size, but have no idea what grade it is? Is that critical, it's just 'stainless' to me?

I can dig it out and measure later if you like?

I'll do the measuring thing and report back later.

@Milkybars Damn! I have failed....the bit I have is 230 x 250 x 3mm thick.

You're welcome to it, if it'd do for your job? Let me know.

@slim_boy_fat thanks for looking the 2.5mm is a must
