Does anyone know a current UK supplier of 1" ID x 1.125" OD mild steel seamless round pipe please? 
(Off the cuff I think that's 16SWG - it's for an exhaust system).
I bought my last length from Steeltubedirect but they seem to have vanished.
Thanks in advance...

Hi Chris

I used “Tubebenders” when I built my manifold and down pipe last year.  The pipes were metric but close to imperial sizes and not seamless.  Any reason for needing seamless? 

Cheers

Howard

Thanks Andy, but no 1.125" OD.

Is that the chap on eBay Howard?
If yes I've just mailed him - thanks.
Seamless - well, probably not, I can't say I've ever tried to hot bend anything else. At this point I'll take what's available!

My favourite supplier for all metals at the moment. Small orders are not a problem.

Hooray! That will do...thank you Henry.

I did actually try them as one of the 1st options but somehow failed to find the right page - but there it is, and £20 for 3m - sorted.
