* Prices subject to change without notice due to the Metals Market fluctuations. | All ‘value length’ and ‘value pack’ item measurements are subject to a “mill tolerance”. | A product may be produced several thousandths of an inch, either over or under the stated thickness, and still be within “mill tolerance”. Since we cut the material specifically for your order, they follow these tolerances: Length: +0.125″ / -0.062” – Please note that during cutting, the blade removes about 1/16″ of material (kerf). This is a normal part of the process and is already considered within the stated tolerances.
