sheet alloy in roll form

[p4pedro]

I am trying to find a supplier of soft sheet alloy , The size is 225 mm wide by .75mm thick it was on a 6 metre roll, I use it to cover the top edges of stable doors ( stops dozy horses from eating the timber ). I have had this last roll for about 9 yearsd and I cannot remember where it was purchased.

I would be surprised if it was an alloy. I would have thought that it was a roll of annealed zintec. Alloy doesn't flatten out too well, after having been coiled.
Zintec is a zinc coating, over a softened mild steel sheet.
The fact that your last roll has lasted over 9 years may suggest that you would be better off, getting sheet metal shop to guillotine you some pieces, 285 x whatever length you need - probably about 1200.
Try a sheet metal shop or even a HVAC company, they should be able to help.

Why not try local coach builders or caravan repairers to see where they get stuff like that from?
