Might be worth giving these a call, they are a couple of miles away from M1 Jtn 28 and do mail order.

Any particular reason for wanting pb104? ( I know it has a higher Sn content….?)

M-Machine in Darlington stock pb102 at your diameter…

Try Manchester metals. I have an account if it helps?

I off work at the moment but when I return I can have a look at what I have ?

Yeah! I've bought a lump of metal from M-machine not so long ago on the recommendation in another post on this forum. It arrived in a few days, was specified length, as in less than 1ft long and cheeeep compared with the others. Many ME suppliers don't stock such large sections.

[clogsParticipant @clogs]

thanks for the replies……..

this material is to make new lift nuts for a 2 poster car lift……..new one's so far are unavailable…….although I have found 1 new old stock and the guy wants €680 euros for it…..hahaha……

happy to try the suggested suppliers…ta..Clogs…..

[clogsParticipant @clogs]

Thanks for the help…….

M-Machine doesn't carry those grades.only PB1 and PB2…….also Manchester Metals has closed down…….!!!!!!!!!

just thought u might like to know………clogs

[Brian WoodParticipant @brianwood45127]

Clogs,

M-Machine also stock cored bronze Pb1 in varying sizes which might make an alternative approach to making the lift nuts with a bronze liner in a steel shell.

I would recommend John Keatley ( Metals) Ltd , they can normally supply most items we need .

0121 236 4300 Birmingham . http://www.johnkeatleymetals.com

I have no connection to them other than as a satisfied customer .

This one on ebay seems to have what you want clogs – **LINK**

May be the one you've tried to contact of course 

I had a look in my drawers (ooer missus) but only found a 4½" of 3"  PB 102  – so wrong on 2 counts!

Clogs, sorry only just seen this post; I was in Sheffield yesterday and today.

I'll probably be back over Tuesday Wed next week so I could possibly call in and ask them for you.

Also ebay shows a phone number for them.

Let my know and I'll give them a bell on your behalf and it'll save you the international call.

What's the spec of the lift??

Bill
