    What number catalog is it? I haven't seen one in several years. Always used to be quite a bit of information about products and methods of use in them. Found it very interesting reading myself.[8D]

    It's safe to say that 95% of maintenance offices in every factory in the US has the McMaster Carr catalog.
    They have everything and being 100 miles west of Omaha, and they being located in Chicago. We could order by noon, and have delivery next days UPS. Great company.

    Great company to deal with but getting a actual paper catalog is like trying to get the formula for Coke. From what I understand they print very few NEW catalogs each year.
    We have a Fastenal 12 miles away and Grainger 30 miles but McMaster Carr has a better selection than both of them and some odd ball stuff too.
