BuySteel.com is officially open for business. The new online storefront gives contractors, manufacturers, fabricators, and maintenance teams a way to get real and immediate quotes and place actual orders for metal without waiting on a phone call or an emailed spreadsheet.
BuySteel.com covers most types of metal — carbon steel, stainless, aluminum, and more — across a variety of sheet and plate. Buyers can search by shape, grade, and size, get pricing on the spot, and check out online. The site also quotes cut-to-size warehouse material and fabricated parts. Powder coat finishes are also available to quote. Utilizing one of the largest 3D printers in the country, BuySteel.com can also quote and field inquiries for 3D printing.
Pricing and availability are drawn from live warehouse inventory rather than a static catalog, so what a customer sees online reflects material that is actually in stock and ready to ship.
Key features at launch include:
• Instant quoting on most metal types, grades, and sizes, including cut-to-size and fabricated parts
• Online checkout by credit card or purchase order
• Order tracking and reorder history from a single account
• Expedited delivery options
The site is expected to be especially useful for small and mid-size companies looking to engineer and/or prototype a unique part prior to ordering large quantities, although that is also an option.
BuySteel.com is live now at www.buysteel.com. Accounts are free to create, and quoting is available without a login.
