Phosphor Bronze

[jverl]

Does anyone have a good source of phosphor bronze (not silicon bronze), preferably in Canada? I'm looking for 1/8" plate or strapping.

Regards,
John

Sorry, I should have specified. :D These are to make mast head fittings on a wooden mast (35' deck to head).

They're not in Canada, and their price is probably not the best, but if all else fails, http://www.mcmaster.com/ does carry phosphor bronze in sizes that might well work for you.

Call your local machine shops and fab shops, they will either have it or know where to buy it.

If they dont have it or kno where to find it...
this Co does have it
