Hollow Steel Balls

[KemppiFrog]

Hi all,
Tried the local suppliers for the above and they only do solid. We need 80/100 mm hemi or full spheres. Can anybody reccommend a supplier in the UK?
Thanks

Good to have personal experience, I think that might have been the outfit that I was trying to remember.

I've used DC iron recently for solid spheres and the turned up pretty quickly.

forest metals do hollow balls, I think they are part of DC iron, not sure though.

I dont think they are part of ddc iron as they are not in the same area. but good prices and reasonable delivery (well I think so)

Seems I got the e-mail wrong.... It is 80/100 CENTIMETRES the guy wants!! A touche more difficult, but thanks for helping, it has given me some more ideas.

Here you go. Google "stainless steel sphere 1000mm" (or 100cm), and you'll find stuff like this

I'm pretty sure none of us here would pay this though
Price:£1,349.99

Ah its F H Brundels that own Forest metals, their VAT numbers are the same, I find you can find quite a few companies that are connected by looking at the business number and the VAT number, like euro car parts and the much cheaper carpartsforless.co.uk. The online version of ECP and its prices are the "offer" prices of ECP....
Sorry a bit off subject but you know what I mean...

Purdie, they do dished ends, spinnings and similar products.
