Zintec

Greetings to you all.
Hope you had a steaming good Christmas.

Can anybody help with a contact address for the supply of Zintec (zinc coated steel) as I wish to use this on my next project.

Regards

I can't help with a specific supplier but it is probably worth giving your local metal stockist a ring. At least one near me stocks it. I don't think the normal ME suppliers sell it but I could be wrong.

Depending on the sizes you want it's worth looking at scrap items such as microwaves, washing machines, computer cases etc. as Zintec is now used a lot for the parts of many domestic items. Microwaves can also be a good source of thin stainless steel sheet for ashpans etc.

I got some 1mm sheet from my local sheet metal supplier. Free out of the skip.
