LandyManLuke Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 If a stockist doesn't have a particular size in stock, they've usually got it in for me. no major hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LandyManLuke Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I've found my local ASD to be a rip off on DIY quantities, hopefully the above won't be the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smo Posted June 28, 2009 Author Share Posted June 28, 2009 I spoke to ASD and they dont have it, nor can they get it despite listing it! The chap even questioned where i got the size from and i said its in the ISO/BS standard and also on their website to which i got a rather deathly silence. Have since sourced some 75x50x6 which whilst not perfect is adequate and was supplied kindly by RB Engineering who are a local company that will also do my water jet cutting.

Ian M Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 we used the use ASD, but have had loads of problems with them, not having stuff in stock, and also their communication is poor, we used to ask eveytime for our number to be put on the delivery sheet so the driver cud find us, but it never is and the driver spends half an hour driving around the estate. We use a local steel stockist now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quarryman Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 We get all our steel from Dyfed. We used to get it from ASD but Dyfed are on average 40% cheaper on all sizes! 01884 266930, speak to either Anya or Carl. Both are really helpfull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Wightman Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 80 x 40 x 6 is not a 'standard ' size. 80 x 60 x 6 is, will that do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiddler66 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I have used Dyfed Steel many times and always found them to be top class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
