    Hi Guys

    Just wanted to check who you were all using for bits like Aluminium angle

    We were using Rightons for most of our bits but they have serious delivery issues into us.

    Any ideas?

    Aalco buy a lot of their stock from Blackburn but Blackburn have their own serious issues and we had a very short, not great relationships with them. Aalco are great for what they do although slightly more expensive.

    We use AALCO but can also recommend Richard Austen Alloys whose prices can be slightly more competitive. The area for the south east is Strood. Try ringing Max on 0203 424 3444

    James, Try Industrial Metal Services in Shoeburyness 01702 296955, they are a big metal stockist of ferrous and non-ferrous and they deliver all over the home counties. I used them for years.

    Richard Austin alloys for me too. I got some angle from them and it was peanuts compared to trade suppliers
