Source for Grain mill rollers (Just the rollers)

[Newfermenter1]

I have materials for most of my future grain mill, but looking for where I can purchase rollers (3 bar or 2 as I would like to explore options). I don't want to buy a unit just to take the rollers. There must be a few component suppliers out there, just need help narrowing the search. Anyone have a supplier in mind? Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided (Or guide to a previous discussion that has this detail)

so you want some 3" stainless bar stock?

Take some bar stock to a metal shop? Or alibaba? If you need some folks to go in on a buy (to get more volume) keep me in mind, i'm looking for 3.

Count me in as well if this is the case.

Just came across a possible supplier in China that makes larger diameter stuff, something like 5" diameter but extremely cheap ($40-$50). Shipping could be a killer. Let me get some firm numbers and i'll post back in a week.

Find out if they are hardened rollers..............Non-hardened steel or stainless steel can wear pretty fast.

And I would think that sourced from China, they are more worried about tooling life, than grain roller performance.......

Good point, i'll get clarification on the steel. One place already bowed out, they don't make small stuff.

got a bid for $1k for six 5" rollers. I'll keep looking.
