A – We generally keep samples from the last time we used a production tool. These might be a different colour or material to what you need, but we can usually provide something suitable. Samples are normally 2-300mm long for ease of posting

A – These are usually 1000m but can vary depending on the profile and material requirements. We can run 500m or even short prototype runs on some tools, but these can work out relatively expensive. Please phone us for more specific details
