My local home depot/rona/can tire carry a limited selection. Otherwise check the local listings for a place selling bulk metals, though they may have a minimum order.

Solway Metal Sales 26 Ernest Ave Toronto (416) 531-1131 is where I would try. Be sure to visit their scrap room.

At my local metal monger they even have heatsink trims.

If these guys don't have what you want they will know who does.

I used to order all my hardware from them.. but last time I placed an order, they claim "due to tighten security by homeland security, etc" we can't export to canada any more

WTF * 100

Well I had to stop eBay sales to Canada because the shipping and "Customs Forms" rates got loony. About $100 minimum.

But if you really get desperate find a friend in Buffalo!

Hmm, there's multiple companies I can think of:

Parker Hannafin has a division that makes them, they take CC's, probably ship about anywhere. Please wait while we redirect....

Also:
item America - Linear Actuators, T-Slot Components & More from Item America: Linear Motion Alternative to Welded Steel
Mechanical Components from RK Rose+Krieger
MISUMI, the catalog company of Machine Components eCatalog

There are others, as some before me have listed. And others I don't currently remember. Hope these help.

Peace,

Dave
