Thanks for the feedback Bruce! I am so glad the ordering process went seamlessly!
I ordered a 3/4" wide x 1/8" thick x 2' long SS bar with next day shipping and next day I received a 11/16" x 2' long SS round bar. They made restitution and sent me thw correct replacement bar and even let me keep the round bar, but it was sent by regular shipping, so I got it 4 days late. I appreciate that they have a great inventory, much if which is in stocks, acceptable prices, great shipping options, including free standard shipping, but don't expect accurate order shipment if you are under short time constraint.
Thanks for the feedback Anthony! I am so sorry this happened! I will be reaching out to you shortly!

I found OnlineMetals.com back when they were a "startup" company and I needed a small order of a specific small quantity order of aluminum tubing.
They have been my go-to source ever since. Their Proto Boxes are worth every penny as well.

We looked around for some time for 4130 in 5/16" thickness to be machined into aircraft parts. OnlineMetals.com had the metal we needed in stock at reasonable cost, and they shipped it rapidly. I'll be sure to check with them again next time we need some raw metal.
Thanks for the feedback Ben! I am so glad we were able to get you the 4130 material you needed for your project. I can not wait to continue doing business with you in the future!

I received the shipment on time and without damage. It was packaged well. This was the first time that my order was fulfilled by a third party seller. Usually a seller sends a shipment notification with tracking number. Framing Technology Inc did not do that and so I used the order number with Online Metals and looked up the order on the Online Metals Web site and found the tracking information that way. Once I had that I could see that it was being shipped via FedEx and I could learn its expected delivery date and track shipment progress that way.
Thanks for the feedback Manning! I am glad you were able to get the tracking. An email should always be sent with the tracking, if you ever do not get one, please let us know, and we can investigate it!


Thanks for the feedback John! I am glad the material came to you in excellent condition!
