Good piece of brass. Made it here quickly and well packaged.
Received in perfect condition and rapidely
So I received the order very well packaged, they must have used half a roll of plastic on it LOL. As well as the hardboard on the outside protecting my aluminum sheets. I really like the fact that when you order on the website they show you what size of plate they cut my sheets out of. I actually increased the size of the plates I needed because it didn't cost me any extra. I needed 9x9 plates but up to 12x12 was the same price so I got larger. Very happy with the way their website and their ordering works.
Received my order sooner than expected
The metal sheet arrived in perfect condition in just 3 working days. Our project required a precise size, and the dimensions were exactly as ordered. There will be no hesitation to order again from this supplier.
I’m so glad I discovered this great little Canadian company. The customer service is excellent and the delivery is extremely fast!! It is awesome to have a shop online that cuts you any lenght of any profile for any canadian DIYers.

Great value
I had been looking for 20mm carbon steel axles for a mini-forklift I am building for some time. For some reason all the pallet jack wheels I could find have 20mm axles and I needed to use those. I asked a friend and he immediately suggested Metals 'R' Us. I placed an order on a Sunday and had the material Wednesday. It fits perfectly! Now I have to spend a few days welding ...
Metals R Us helped our company out when in a jam. Product was easy to find, shipped promptly, and arrived as described. We will definitely be using Metals R Us in the future - highly recommended.
good delivery and aluminium ok
The staff here are very friendly and helpful. The material was exactly what i was looking for. I will be doing lots of business with them in the future.
Metal showed exactly as ordered
I couldn't find the product locally in Vancouver so when I searched online and came across Metals R Us had stock and was able to get it to me in 3 days from the other side of the country, i was pretty impressed. Thanks

Good service. Thx
Good quality, well packaged, arrived without a scratch
great piece of copper
Nice clean piece of steel that was well wrapped for shipping
Good value for dollar, most places offering much thinner material for the same price. Was well packaged and shipped quickly. I will buy from here again, its actually easier that going to my local metal store who is so slow you can almost waste a morning there waiting! Time is $$, so plan ahead and order for those small jobs.
Order was processed and shipped quickly. Shipping was reasonable and the package arrived in a timely manner. Pieces were cut to length and deburred, ready to go. I don’t have a place where I can buy small order quantities.
Good prices, high quality and very fast delivery who could ask for more -certainly not me
Was as described and arrived in 3 days. It is hard to find a company that will sell small orders and this is appreciated thanks.
A1, great items cut at the right size. Would order again!
Arrived quickly and cut to length specified. Happy Customer.

About our brass
Almost all the brass we sell is C360 free-machining brass, and that's on purpose: it's the easiest metal in the shop to machine, threads clean, and looks good doing it. Fittings, valve parts, bushings, decorative hardware, knife bolsters: C360 covers them.
We stock it as flat bar, round bar, hex bar, square bar, and sheet. Hex is the sleeper: if you're turning fittings, starting from hex bar saves a milling step. Cut to the inch, shipped across Canada, or pick up free at the Dartmouth shop.
What is C360 brass good for?
Machining, first and last. C360 is free-machining brass, the nicest metal you'll ever put on a lathe: fittings, valve parts, knobs, inserts, small bushings, and one-off repair parts come off the tool clean with chips that behave. If your project involves a lathe, a mill, or a tap, this rack is where it starts. Weighing 360 against 260 cartridge brass? Our 360 vs 260 guide covers machining vs forming, with June 2026 prices.
What shapes can you get?
Hex bar, round bar, flat bar, square bar, and sheet. Hex earns its keep on fittings work: the wrench flats come free with the bar. As of June 2026, a 12″ piece of 1/2″ C360 hex runs $15.38 CAD, cut to ±1/8″ with no cutting fee, and prices update daily.
Does brass tarnish?
Yes, and that's half the appeal. Bright brass dulls to brown over months of handling; outdoors it goes darker faster. Want it to stay bright? Lacquer it after polishing. Want character? Let it age. One honest limit: for hardware that lives in salt water, bronze outlasts brass, so put the boat parts there.
Any machining tips for C360?
It barely needs them. Sharp tools, modest speeds, and it cuts dry for most work. Two habits help: support thin sections so they don't grab, and chamfer before tapping, the threads come out glassy. If you're choosing between C360 and copper for a part that gets machined, choose C360 and thank yourself at the lathe.
