Testimonials

“We are a family of tool makers with a combined 75+ years of experience. We forged a working friendship with the Beardens and Steel Sales & Equipment early in our journey. Through several generations they have supplied us with cutting tools, measuring equipment, shop supplies, fasteners, cleaning supplies, etc…. The team at Steel Sales has always helped us find what we need to complete the job at hand! Fast and friendly service is only a phone call away.”

“In 2018, I started the in-house machine shop from scratch, at Nice-Pak Products in Jonesboro, Arkansas. Steel Sales provided me with everything I needed to get in full operation.  From quality cutting tools with Mitsubishi and OSG, to all of my workholding and a high quality coolant. They made a hard job, extremely easy. They can also find the impossible when you need it badly.”

“The company I work for (for 17 years now) has utilized Steel Sales in many applications even before I started here. From cleaning supplies, to cutting tools, to measuring equipment, Steel Sales is able to get us what we need, when we need it, while managing to hold competitive prices. The Steel Sales team has the knowledge to steer you in the right direction for your application when you don’t have the time to do the research yourself. They work closely with the tool manufacturers for/with you to resolve any issues or give suggestions for your application. The level of customer service I have received from the Steel Sales team is 2nd to none.”

“As a client of Steel Sales, I have been able to rely on their readiness, ability, knowledge, and loyalty to provide excellent service. I know I can call anytime and have their expertise put to work on whatever I need. Steel Sales is the kind of company that if they cannot answer your questions, they will find out for you or point you in the right direction whether it pertains to them or someone else. I am thankful for the many years of service, friendship and honesty.”

“I have been a customer as a supervisor, as a machinist, as a tool and die maker, and now as a shop owner of Steel Sales since 1988. Any time that I need a product, from cutting tools, to coolant, these guys have always come through for me. At one time, when I was a machinist, we were trying to make parts that required a high removal rate of A-2 and D-2 tool steels, as well as pre hardened 4140, David Gatling introduced us to the world of high feed indexable milling. We literally went from making 1 part per day, to being able to make 3 parts per day, which is a substantial improvement. I recommend Mike and David to anyone that asks me where to order their supplies.”

“Steel Sales & Equipment staff has always been extremely helpful and courteous when called upon. They have a knowledgeable sales staff capable of responding quickly to our tooling needs. They are very interested in the success of their customers and this contributes to their success also. We value their service and look forward to a long lasting business relationship with them.

P.S. Their buy one get one offer is hard to pass up. Especially with no restrictions. I encourage everyone to take advantage of this incredibly generous offer.”

“As the principal buyer for an AS certified machine shop, I see 10 or more salesman per month. I always look forward to seeing David Gatling because he is always there to answer our questions and willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done, even if it means sending me to his competition. That is a true sign that Steel Sales is willing to do what every industrial supplier is supposed to do … work for me! David, Mike, Charlene and the crew always go the extra mile. That’s what true customer service is all about! If you need a supplier that you can count on, Steel Sales is the one to call.”

“I’ve been doing business with Steel Sales for the last 10 years. I like working with that the sales team does not pester me about my business. They have the track record of knowing what we need and I tell them when we need it. I order a lot of special, made to order items and they stay on top of the lead times to make sure our production always stays running.”

“Steel Sales is fast and responsive to meet our needs. We are small fish and they always treat us like big fish.”
