Tube Shipment
Apr 16The old problem of 1 5/8 x 083 supply is rearing its ugly head again. We have nil stock at present with 1100m that was due to arrive today now not due in port until next Friday the 23rd April - assuming no more shipping delays. This will give us around 180 lengths in what looks to be 2 different lengths, 6.55m & 5.79m. The next lot that we have managed to secure is not due out of the mill in the US until mid June, expected in Sydney late July early August. It is very frustrating but there is a world wide shortage of 4130 tube due to the virus and shipping badly affecting European supplies and one of the major mills in the US being down on production as they relocate to a new facility. We will keep you posted!
