Hi all,
I'm looking for anyone who knows of anybody who can supply a smallish quantity (30 - 40 meters) of metric seamless steel tube 25mm diameter with a 1mm wall thickness.
I have already been through the excellent sticky post about steel suppliers and the only two that did claim they supply it are Hub Le Bas and Dyfed Steels. Unfortunately the later gets it from the former and it turns out the former no longer supplies it despite it being listed on there website.
To be honest I've been searching the Internet for weeks now and it would seem this tube is all imported from Germany, Spain etc. Having spent about two weeks solid searching Google.com and Google.de, Ebay, Ebay.de for someone to supply this tube I'm at my wits end, I never thought it would be so difficult to source.
Not speaking German or Spanish doesn't help as I am having to translate my search criteria online and then most of the websites I come across. Cut a long story short it would seem there are quite a lot of large steel stock holders and manufactures in Europe who make tube of the dimensions I'm after but none have online shops or will only sell tube in very large quantities.
Maybe it's just me but I can't seem to find many German steel suppliers/stockholders that have online shops, loads in this country but unfortunately they don't have what I need. Closest they could come up with was 25mm O/D 1.2mm wall, unfortunately I really can't go any bigger than 1mm or 19swg and 25mm O/D.
If anyone knows how to source this tube I would be forever in your debt if you could let me know.
