  • Help needed sourcing MSS sign system supplier, please?

    Hello every one.
    I was hoping for some direction.

    The MSS Sign system is a simple system, however I can only find resellers in the UK.
    Can any one direct me to the actual component supplier.

    Many thanks

    Rich

    Hi Rich,

    the MSS system is not readily sold in component length. A number of companies sell the system in the UK but this is based on them buying the extrusions in bulk. Although the interlocking dovetail design is simple the actual process of producing the extrusion (and the variable tolerances as the aluminium cools down after stretching) means that a lot of them do not happily fit together and is often a case of choosing a good pair that do.(For the same reason a lot of scrap is also produced!). I guess you already have a supplier but if you need another please feel free to give us a shout. Hope this helps?

    Andy
