Portland Oregon area source for stainless stock

[gr8legs]

Hi all,

I need a couple of strips of most any sort of stainless that's relatively easy to TIG. About 6 feet of flat stock 1.5" - 2" wide. Thickness I don't know, but pretty thin so I can bend it on my D&K finger brake but thick enough that I don't burn it up whilst welding.

Anybody know a local (PDX) source ?

Thanks!

Stu

I'd suggest the Burcham's Metals scrap yard in Albany. http://www.burchamsmetals.com
Or else maybe Ram/Steelco in Salem. https://www.ramsteelco.net
I've bought from both, back when I lived in Corvallis.
Neither one's in Portland, but Salem is closer to you, and Albany is about as far, just the other way.

Thanks John -

I'm into Ram Steel regularly and did not think of them as a source for stainless - just hot and cold rolled.

I shall make a phone call tomorrow and figure out how they can help me.

Albany is close enough for a supplier #2 if the need arises.

Thanks again,

Stu
