So Im looking for US made SS weld els in New England or the east coast. I used to order from McMaster for all my weld els but for a while now they're all from China. I found a local guy for a slight price increase that sells ones made in the US. Unfortunately he is closing his doors in a few weeks and I need to find another supplier.

 

keeping an eye on this.

 

I have NEVER seen US or Canadian-made weld els! Good to know they exist, but how much do they normally cost?

 

I was paying $8.30 for a 1 1/2" 90* 2 1/4" height. The US ones are much nicer, when you hit them with the wire wheel they're smooth unlike the Chinese ones that look like a fat woman's *** after she sat in gravel.

 

I'm curious myself. Something thats nice and smooth, nothing like the stated above. Haha!

Smooth weld els be sweet!

 

i've never seen na made ones either. pics?

 

You should be able to get these from any big Stainless supplier, we only buy North American made elbows and tubing. Chinese **** is just that.

 

Wanna give in and give a name?

 

Unified Alloys, Alaskan Copper and Brass, Swagelok, Eagle, Rogers...

 

ace stainless?

 

ace stainless uses china made els. they work fine, just finish is pretty rough.

 

i like where this thread is going.

 

Thank you sir, I will look into those places.

 

any luck and pricing info?

 

yeah i'm interested to know what the pricing is on the american bends?

 

and where to get them.

 

Um what?

 

Yeah, umm, got it, googled them, sites are not very user friendly, would be nice to put a price to a company as well as shipping as some of them are outside the continental US. That’s all. Unless you saw something I didn’t, I’m not the most internet savvy.
