who gets there steel where? I'm looking at doing some fabrication and repair, where is the best place to get steel from?

[tlssunny]

what size you after vaughn? are we talking 0.8mm panel steel for rust repairs or 3mm for other stuff??? are we talking box steel? angle iron/angle box? round???

We use Steel & Tube at work but have used Fletchers, very low volume though, the guys next door use Tata as well. Hayden would have some good hook ups I would think?

[nzdatman]

We mainly use Fletcher Steel and Steel and Tube. Tata NZ was bought out by Steel and Tube last year. Other suppliers up here are Vulcan Steel and HJ Asmuss.
If you need a lot of steel try get it through someone who buys a lot of steel and has a decent buy rate.

if your after box section I can get it trade price. if its sheet metal you are after then I use steel and tube falsegrave st, and tata ( now steel and tube ) for stainless.
