    Hello,
    Can anyone suggest any good sources of information on the web of available suppliers for Aluminum, Copper and other Non-Ferrous Metals?

    I am looking for rectangular stock in various sizes and grades for CNC machining.

    Thanks,

    http://www.peckovers.com/ Looks like you can't order on-line and no listed prices? That for me is a turn-off, but I'll have to give them a try.

    These guys don't always have everything you might be looking for but their prices and service are great: http://www.lowcostmetals.com. One of the few places I've found where I can use Paypal to pay.

    JR that's a great resource, thanks. Good organization of the web site, and one of the few dealers that stocks more than one or two alloys. And the price does seem decent.

    Aluminium stocks in Australia

    Hi,

    Can anyone suggest Aluminum suppliers in Australia for machining with 6061 or 2011.

    I am looking for aluminium block size roughly 60x70x300mm and I had serious problem finding a suitable supplier in Sydney.

    Length is not a problem as i have a bandsaw.

    Best Regards,
    Gerson

    I've used speedymetals.com before and found their pirces very reasonable with prompt shipping and they have a very large selection of materials and sizes.
