Does anyone know of a supplier that carries 416ss annealed square stock, either 1 1/4" oversized or 1 3/8"? My go to suppliers don't have anything of the sort.
I see McMaster-Carr carries some but the price seems pretty high even by their standards.
These parts were previously being made from mild steel. I have done them this way several times. They have 8 4-40 tapped holes in them, I was also ganging them up on a surface grinder to finish the height (not critical) and get a surface finish, this would make 416 preferable to 303 as its magnetic and easier to machine.
