Copper pipe suppliers

Hi all,

Was wondering who people go to for loco copper pipe supply these days?

Any pointers gratefully appreciated.

Thanks

I think this is who we have used recently http://www.ppnonferrous.com/

 

Thanks for the reply. Will give them a try when the time comes.

 

The LNERCA (NYMR) has about 120 t of 1" bsp copper pipe available for sale if that is of interest. We're looking for about £900, no VA on that, buyer collects.

PM me if interested

 

£120 t ? £900? Consider it sold, Roger!

 

That seems ultra cheap, could sell it to scrap merchants and get so much more than you are asking for it.
I do appreciate it is to help another Heritage loco builder/repairers, but surely gaining maximum funds for LNERCA is most important, unless I have misunderstood weight etc and scrap prices?

 

Sorry, fingers going faster than brain - 120ft! £900 is about what we paid for it so we're not making anything (or losing) but plans change and we no longer have a use for it, so would prefer to have the cash!

J. Keatley Metals in Birmingham are a long established family firm and in my experience go the extra mile to help when necessary. As for owner Richard Mason if calling.
