Copper steam pipe

Post by Trainsplanesandautos »

In the past I have purchased copper pipe from Coles, is there a vendor I the US that can supply pipe in the same sizes Coles offered?

If one of those sizes is over 4" OD....then the answer is no...unless you happen to fall over someone who happen to have some on hand. All pipe over 4" of generally comes from the UK.
Too many things going on to bother listing them.

Maybe a little clarification is in order. The pipe used for the threaded pipe fittings mtp threads.
