WTB - AU : Empty component reels in 12, 16 and 24mm

(1/1)

deanclaxton:
Wondering if by chance anyone has any 12mm, 16mm and 24mm empty component reels that they'd sell off. I have a few cut tape lengths that I would like to wind onto a reel to load into a pick and place machine.

Probably some 8's might be handy too.

I'm in Brisbane but happy to pay for the shipping as well.

deanclaxton:
Element14 sell 8mm reels, plus the leader tapes. I've put feelers out on alibaba for some 12, 16, 24mm reels plus I've contacted Mid America taping and reeling to see if they will ship to AU (https://matr.com/)

Kean:
I bought some of the 8mm reels from E14 a number of years ago when I was mainly buying cut tape and re-reeling myself.
The ones I received were not all new, still having some signs of old labels, and none were anti-static type.

I only have a small number of empty 12mm reels, and few if any wider ones.  Maybe some 13", but not 7".

Do you work with any local assemblers?  There is a good chance they might be able to put some aside...
If you do have any response from MATR I'm happy to consider a joint purchase.

deanclaxton:
Ok cool - I did get a reponse from MATR - they are working out the shipping costs. What would you be chasing? I can ask how much that would add to the shipping? The reels themselves are fairly cheap.

deanclaxton:
Shipping from USA is far too expensive unfortunately. MATR quoted USD$68 for all the reels I wanted, but the shipping estimate (FedEx) was $861. I'll continue my search locally.
