Live Steam Models down the road from me (in the UK) list 9/32 EN1A hex at £1.15 per metre.

.


That’s an excellent price list ^^^

thanks for the link, Robin … duly noted yes

Not sure if you meant [(excellent price) list] or [excellent (price list)] Michael, but it's certainly an unusual price list (both ways) in that they base prices on what they paid when they bought it, rather than current value. That policy leads to anomalies such as 2.5" round steel bar being 13% cheaper than 2.25" per unit length. Worked well for buying brass when copper prices went through the roof!

Mal may well find that that the price/availability of 9/32" hex is based on a half metre length which has been sitting on the shelf for years, but worth a try.

Apologies for the inadvertent ambiguation, Robin

Concatenation [pricelist] or hyphenation [price-list] might possibly have helped, but … for the avoidance of doubt …let me say that I was specifically admiring it as an exercise in listing.

The prices do generally look attractive, but being unfamiliar with their products I would not presume to comment upon those.

Hi Robin,

Thanks for the help. Looks like your shop had some stock. Only 13 metres but that's a good start. Not at that low price but still cheap enough for what I need. Just got to find another 17 metres or more before I ship it here.
