409 SS and 409 Ni Modified SS

04/08/2007 12:47 PM

I am searching for the cheapest price for two steel types and I am having trouble getting several competitive quotes.

1. 55,000#'s EAU for 5 years+,

409 Ni modified SS, .375" thick x 41" x 80" sheets

2. 35,000#'s EAU for 5 years+,

409 SS, .1875" thick x 48" x 96" sheets

I am currently buying this steel from Straub the 409 people. I want to continue to shop for the best price for the life of the 5 year program. I have heard about a website that I could post this RFQ at and get many quotes to compare. If anyone could help direct me to this type of site or to the best company to buy this from, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!!!

For a small quantity like that the only quote you will get will have a few price variables linked to the price of Nickel and others costly components.

A large order can be shopped to an alloy maker who will forward buy the components and make you sign a take it or pay for it anyway contract so you will get a fixed 5 year price that you must pay even if nickel falls a lot.

It is hard to say whether or not the demand from China and India will drop over the next 5 years
