and for the metric conversion challenged,

GSM = Grams per Square Meter

to convert, oz/yd2 = GSM / 33.94

Isn't the internet the great equalizer? These are the prices that CST and Aerospace are probably buying at before marking up. I found the make of the vacuum switch that ACP is selling for about 1/3 the cost. ACP removes the sticker from the ones they send out but the power of the internet came through on that one. The search for vacuum switches took me about three hours before I came across the right one though.

Hey Winship, I'm looking for a vacuum switch too. Can you tell me about the one you found?

Cheers!

Default can't contact discountcomposite.com

I tried to contact them by email last night but got an error message in return saying that there is no such address. Has anyone ordered anything from this supplier ? do they have any minimum ordering quantity ? The price is really attractive !
