Spring Steel Supplier

Can anyone suggest a source of 10mm x 1mm spring steel, as used in parts CD0111 to CD0115

It would appear the Pz IV needs just over 6m, so I would guess 6.5m would cover cutting losses

Is it usual to buy this sort of material as plain steel strip and heat treat it once cut to the correct dimensions

Thanks

Adrian

I got mine from (with I think a minimum 10mtr order)
http://www.emmottsprings.co.uk/
Cut and drilled them, then had them heat treated by a local company who I knew very well.

Many thanks Graham.

I'll have a hunt in the Yellow Pages and see if there is anyone local who could heat treat them for me.

Adrian.
