Where to find thin and wide 5160?

[hodgescl]

I have been searching the internet for a few hours now looking for some 5160 bars that are less than 1/4" thick and between 2 and 3 inches wideand between 16 and 24 inches in length.

does anybody know where this can be found? Im really trying to avoid grinding down an entire bar of steel to thickness.


If this is the wrong area for this question, feel free to move it.

I know that aldo is working with a smelter to get some 3/16ths made, but that isn't done yet, so I would say wait. if you need it NOW, then you may need to look into other alternatives like S7 and 3V.

There's a shop near me that sells it sometimes. How many do you need?

I've got some .237 x 3" 5160H that I could grind down for you if you're in a pinch. E-Mail me at njsteelbaron@gmail.com
