Great product and Service
October 19, 2025

We have used online metals a few times this year. Each time our order arrives when promised and exactly as we ordered. Pricing is what we expect for our industry but saves us the hassle of having to pick it up. We will continue to use them.

Great service on shipping
October 18, 2025

I ordered three pieces of aluminum over the weekend. They got in touch to let me know those were still in transit and there would be a one-day delay. These things happen, and I consider them getting in touch to be great customer service.

I ordered several custom cut AL. Some of them were distorted, not flat. I don't know if it was from the cutting or the shipping. I've ordered before and usually I'm happy.

If they don't carry it, you probably don't need it. Impressive inventory of shapes, sizes and alloys.

Great service, quick delivery
October 8, 2025

This was one of my few orders from Online Metals. I make musical instruments, so I do more woodwork than metalwork but, once in a while I have to fabricate banjo hardware. I have bought brass to make my own parts before, and I have never been disappointed. This time was no exception. The parts were delivered to me quickly and I got to continue my building much faster than I had anticipated. The main two holdups in instrument making are having to wait on something to dry (glue, lacquer, etc.) and waiting on hardware to arrive. The wait for this hardware was very short.
