Small Parts Inc is a fantastic distributor. While Small Parts specializes in – you guessed it, small specialty parts, their catalog now includes a huge selection of materials, parts, and tools.
This is why we love ordering from Small Parts:

- Small Parts has a great selection of hard to find hand tools
- They also have a great selection of raw materials, fasteners, and specialty items
- Small Parts’ prices are often comparable to or lower than those of other distributors
- Since orders with Small Parts are fulfilled by Amazon, “free super saver shipping” applies on orders over $25*
- We subscribe to Amazon Prime, so we receive our orders in two business days, sometimes sooner
Some of the types of products we’ve ordered from Small Parts include PVC tubing, plastic sheets, Xuron shears, drill bits, fasteners, and screwdriver sets.
A few weeks ago, we mentioned that MSC Industrial was one of our favorite online places to shop. As you can tell, Small Parts Inc has a rock solid spot on the same list.
*We’ve read a few accounts where the ‘free super saver shipping’ discount was not properly deducted due to a system bug. If this happens to you, an email to Amazon’s customer service should set things straight.

Small Parts USED to be an excellent supplier. I have bought stuff from them for thirty (or more) years. But in the last couple of years, things seem to have deteriorated badly, and my last few orders have been very much “botched up”.
I don’t know what has changed….they were bought out by Amazon in 2005, but the start of the foulups is more recent.

Thanks for the link! Looks legit, but I can’t tell if there is any spyware or malicious links embedded in the PDF.
