The smallest I seem to be able to find in my area is 16ga galv. sheetmetal. Anyone know of and dealers in the area for some 18ga?
depending on the size of the piece you need, some Menards and Home Depots stock a pretty decent selection of 18 & 20 gauge cold rolled. I've lucked out in the past and been able to pick up 2'x3' sheets of cold roll 18 gauge from them. That said, I've noticed it is total hit or miss and really depends on the store. Some have crap for steel stock, the menards they built up the road from me now has a huge selection of the stuff, where the old one it replaced had next to nothing. And the one a city over, also has next to nothing.. so it does vary.
Reliance, should have it, that one of our vendors http://local.yahoo.com/info-19135583-reliance-metalcenter-humble
Thanks guys! Yeah locally they mainly have the thicker stuff because of the refineries, plants, and mills in the area. Funny thing- I work at a steel mill but we only make coiled rod and rebar... nothing that I need haha. I will check those out- thanks again for the info guys! Spaz
This is the place I have bought from in the past. Usually have just about anything I need, and most thicknesses. Diamond Sheet Metal Inc 7009 Hirsch Rd Houston TX 77016-6854 tel;713-631-0330 ~MyDeSoto~
You should be able to find it in Beaumont. Have you tried any of the commercial HVAC or Mechanical companys? If they wont sell you a sheet they sould be able to tell you where to get some.
Most of the Tractor Supply Stores have a good selection of sheet stock and diamond plate. I bought several sheets of 18Ga. at Curtiss Steel on West 11TH in Houston.
What size do need my dad's company has rolls of sheet metal I am sure I can get some from him. Pm me and Iwill try and hook you up.
