Hello,
I was hoping to tap your collective knowledge to find out a few things:

Who could offer me the best 17-7 wire?

What kind of price levels should I expect for 500 lbs, 1/4" diameter round, nickel-coated 17-7 wire? (separating base price from surcharge)

Anything to watch out for (to avoid getting ripped off, etc)?

Thanks,

Mark

A small lot of Ni coated, you are going to pay.
Have you tried Bekaert?
I assume that you want it heavily cold worked and you will form and then age.

Still trying to help you stop corrosion.

The best Ni-coated 17-7 is produced by Suzuki-Sumiden. Distributors like Gibbs and Asada Metal sell smaller quantities.
