Metric suppliers for metric metal dimension
Hi, most of my work is doing prototype for companies and other thing.
I'm looking for a metal supplier that can sell metric (mainly shaft) , cold rolled or alloy .
I do not need a lot, but all suppliers around me only have inches dimension.
Suppliers in the province of Quebec would be great.
Canada has been a metric country since 1970 I think, but I can't understand why it is so hard to find metric supply.
Thanks for any information.

Metric Suppliers in Canada
A good source of quality metric components that are comparable in cost to standard components is Hasco which has a sales office and warehouse in Scarborough, Ont.
You will find a good selection of various metric screws, bolts. bushings, rods, etc.
Things like rods you'll find when searching their website will go by names like guide or angle pillar, ejector pins, core pins, etc. These are the names they are commonly referred to in the moldmaking trade.
They also carry a good supply of tool steels in plate form in various sizes and thicknesses (mild steel, P20, 420SS, etc).
