Any particular reason for wanting pb104? ( I know it has a higher Sn content....?)

M-Machine in Darlington stock pb102 at your diameter...

Try Manchester metals. I have an account if it helps?

I off work at the moment but when I return I can have a look at what I have ?

Yeah! I've bought a lump of metal from M-machine not so long ago on the recommendation in another post on this forum. It arrived in a few days, was specified length, as in less than 1ft long and cheeeep compared with the others. Many ME suppliers don't stock such large sections.

thanks for the replies........

this material is to make new lift nuts for a 2 poster car lift........new one's so far are unavailable.......although I have found 1 new old stock and the guy wants €680 euros for it.....hahaha......

happy to try the suggested suppliers...ta..Clogs.....

Thanks for the help.......

M-Machine doesn't carry those grades.only PB1 and PB2.......also Manchester Metals has closed down.......!!!!!!!!!

just thought u might like to know.........clogs

Clogs,

M-Machine also stock cored bronze Pb1 in varying sizes which might make an alternative approach to making the lift nuts with a bronze liner in a steel shell.

I would recommend John Keatley ( Metals) Ltd , they can normally supply most items we need .

0121 236 4300 Birmingham . www.johnkeatleymetals.com

I have no connection to them other than as a satisfied customer .

This one on ebay seems to have what you want clogs - **LINK**

May be the one you've tried to contact of course 

I had a look in my drawers (ooer missus) but only found a 4½" of 3"  PB 102  - so wrong on 2 counts!

Clogs, sorry only just seen this post; I was in Sheffield yesterday and today.

I'll probably be back over Tuesday Wed next week so I could possibly call in and ask them for you.

Also ebay shows a phone number for them.

Let my know and I'll give them a bell on your behalf and it'll save you the international call.

What's the spec of the lift??
