2 forum posts	Hello everyone, I've come to this forum in search of a bit of assistance. I'm looking for 25mmx25mm pressed steel channel section but am having no luck in finding any locally. (The nearest I've found is in Devon and postage is expensive). I wondered why is it so hard to find? Is there a more common substitute I should be looking for? Thanks in advance for any help! Great forum by the way!
