Brown Metals Company, founded in 1970, is a leading distributor of custom-slit and coiled thin-gauge stainless steel and high-temperature alloys. For over five decades of owner-operated leadership, we’ve built a reputation for technical expertise, precision processing, and dependable service. Our team—including highly trained slitter operators, quality assurance specialists, and knowledgeable sales professionals—brings deep experience in thin-gauge stainless steel. We provide fast turnaround, competitive pricing, and custom-width slitting with tight tolerances. As an authorized distributor for U.S.-based mills, we supply 100% U.S.-produced stainless steel only, with no brokerage markups. All material is DFARS compliant, and we are AS9100D / ISO 9001:2015 certified to support customers requiring rigorous quality and documentation. We maintain one of the most diverse inventories of thin-gauge coil on the West Coast, including 300 series (304, 301, 316, etc.) and 17-7 stainless steel. We specialize in precision-slit coil and custom sheared sheet, processing materials from .0005" to .035" thick and .020" to 36" wide, holding tolerances to ± .001". Our engineered equipment supports both high-volume production and small-batch requirements with consistent accuracy and packaging care. With the largest on-hand inventory of thin-gauge stainless steel on the West Coast (1M+ lbs), customers can rely on true stock availability and rapid delivery. Materials listed are in stock and ready to ship. Our products serve manufacturing across aerospace, automotive, biotech, electronics, equipment manufacturing, food processing, medical devices, petrochemical processing, and more. Every order, whether under one pound or more than 10 tons, includes full physical and chemical test documentation. For 50+ years, our promise has remained the same: Service. Dependability. Consistent quality.
