K & S - Metal Strips
Craft precise metalwork with durable strips engineered for fine detail
Thin, flat metal that cuts, bends, and shapes exactly where you need it. K & S metal strips give you structural material that handles like heavy paper but provides real strength, perfect for armatures, edge reinforcement, mechanical components, or dimensional sculptural elements. The precise mill rolling creates uniform thickness across the entire strip, ensuring consistent behavior whether you're forming curves, creating right angles, or leaving sections flat.
K & S Engineering has spent six decades refining metal manufacturing processes, and it shows in how these strips perform. Clean edges eliminate the rough burrs that snag fingers or interfere with tight tolerances. The material takes solder joints cleanly for permanent assemblies, or you can work it cold with basic tools, tin snips for cutting, pliers for bending, files for finishing. Brass strips develop warm patina over time; aluminum stays lightweight and corrosion-resistant; steel provides maximum strength for load-bearing applications.
Model makers rely on these strips for anything from miniature structural frameworks to decorative trim details. Mixed media artists incorporate them into wall pieces and kinetic sculptures. The flat profile means they nestle flush against surfaces or stand perpendicular as needed, adapting to whatever your project demands.
