Need some help locating a supplier

[rabbitreborn]

I have been building F&R boards out of a pair of 6 pole solenoids for awhile now that I retrofit into Club Cars and E-Z-GO's when customers are upgrading to 500 or 700 amp controllers. Currently I have been building my "bridges" between the solenoids using 4 gauge (or in some cases 2 gauge) wire, but I would like to eliminate the wire and go to a heavy duty copper "buss" bar setup to clean it up a bit. Does anyone know of any good places online that I could get copper flat stock that I can cut to length and bend as needed that is already set up with the 5/16 holes spaced in it?

Just to give you an idea of a typical setup, I am including a pic of a quick rough mock up that I did to show a friend what the design looks like. Don't laugh too hard at the crudeness of it......

I looked at that before but I couldn't find the item in their price list. Any idea how much they charge for that?

That would work, guess I could drill my own holes as needed.....

The Erico Flexibar is sold in fixed lengths from the manufacturer, but a good local distributor should be able to help you out.
Also Rittal Enclosures sells some bus bars too.
I hope that helps.
