tomstaf Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I need some 1mm x 10thou strip. It can be in brass, copper or nickel silver but must be those dimensions. I have had an unsuccessful search on the internet so far. Does anyone know of a supplier? Many Thanks Tom Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Natalie Graham Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 How critical is the .010" dimension as Eileen's have brass, Nickel Silver and Phosphor Bronze in 1mm x .3mm which equates to .0118". Is the .0018" oversize critical? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Natalie Graham Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 They do .2mm thick too if being too thin would be OK. If you don't need too much you could always file it a bit thinner bewteen two wider strips of .010" on a flat surface. I found 1mm x .25mm phosphor bronze strip from here.
