    Looking for Zinc in sheet form

    Hi All,
    Does anyone know of a local supplier who stocks and sells Zinc sheets in 0.5 or 1mm. Preferably in Johannesburg area.

    Are you talking about IBR or Corrugated sheeting ?

    No this is not the traditional hot plate zinc IBR sheeting.

    I am looking for Zinc in it's true form, which is then rolled into a sheet.
    This is then cut up into small plates which then can be supplied to schools or for other electrical experiments.
    In my case I want to make a battery with the zinc plate.

    Not sure about JHB but I'd try Non Ferrous Metals, I use them regularly in Cape Town.
