Tube and bar

[Parm]

where can I get (local to me, Northampton or Milton Keynes) some stainless steel tube approx 40mm diameter and 1mm wall thickness, sizes are approximate and not too critical as I can adjust to suit purpose, must be 2 meters long, it will be useful if I can polish this up to a high shine

Also need 12mm steel bar that I can thread to 12mm also 2 meters long.

ASC Metals on crow lane industrial estate, you will need to buy a 6m length of tube, it will be 1.5" x 16swg, and a 3m length of bar they will cut it for you though,
Tube comes in bright polished, (very shiny) or dull polished, (brushed satin effect)

Have you any idea about costs as 6m is way too much but may be cheaper than buying a smaller length

Best to just give them a call, they will quote you over the phone, they may even have an offcut,

There's a place in Hatfield, Herts. that I've used for aluminium. They do stainless too. This is 1-1/2" 1.625 wall thickness and 3 metre length - http://www.aluminiumwarehouse.co.uk...Polished_1_1/2”_o/d_x_16swg/product_info.html
