Great strides in Europe
Stride Supplies Ltd is a distributor of
high carbon spring wire in the UK. With
over 30 years, experience it offers a fully
comprehensive range of specifications.
2012 saw the move to larger
custom-built premises, which has
enabled the enhancement of stock
levels for existing products and
additionally has enabled Stride to
extend its product range into new
areas such as chrome vanadium and
17/7ph stainless.
Last year saw the continued expansion
of the group by the acquisition of the
bespoke fastener manufacturer DSL
Ltd, which supplies the automotive
industry.
This year will see Stride further cement
its position in the UK spring industry
by achieving the AS9120 aerospace
standard for stockist distributors. In
addition, an SAP software system will
be implemented to update all systems
and enable the group communications
to operate at the highest level of
efficiency and sustainability.
Stride’s suppliers are listed among
the largest and most prestigious wire
and steel manufacturers across the
globe and include Arcelor Mittal, KOS,
Suzuki, DSR, Fox, Bridon and WDI.
The current product range includes
stainless to all major specifications,
high carbon steels in both galvanised
and plain finishes to all major tensile
ranges and specifications, as well
as silicon chrome and Chrome
vanadium.
