3/4" brass tube

[mouppe]

Hello,

Does anyone know where I can get hold of 3/4" solid brass tube? I want to machine some bench dogs. The only tube that I can find is hollowed tube, such as that sold by K&S .

many thanks
Mouppe.

Try IMS in Ca. Industrial Metal Supply. They should be able to get it for you if they don't already have it in stock.

Ya I wish we had them on the east coast. Best selection of metal Ive ever found.

You could also check Special Shapes Co.-- Home Page --. They have a fairly large selection of brass rod at reasonable prices, although there is a minimum order quantity. I don't remember how much, but I do remember it being fairly easy to meet he minimum.

Was checking out sherline.com today. There is a sources link on the main page which might be helpful. a small reminder also rod and bar stock are solid tube is hollow, makes a difference when talking to suppliers.

For something like that, I usually use one of these two places:

McMaster-Carr
Speedy Metals Online Industrial Metal Supply

I've ordered from both numerous times.
