About

Right Metal. Right Time. Right Company.

Since 1983, Tampa Steel & Supply has served all of West Central Florida’s steel needs. As a family- and veteran-owned and operated business, we pride ourselves on providing a personalized experience that doesn’t just feel like a transaction to our customers. By providing high-quality products coupled with excellent customer service, we strive to make Tampa Steel & Supply a great place for every person that walks through our doors.

Since our founding almost 40 years ago, Tampa Steel & Supply has grown into a full-line metal service center. By doing so, we can serve the needs of everyone, whether fabricators, contractors, machinists, welders, artists, or the general public. At Tampa Steel & Supply, we maintain an impressive inventory of metal products, including stainless steel, aluminum, ornamental metals, and all the accessories you need to complete your next project. In addition to our regularly stocked products, we also carry a large selection of surplus products and offer them to you at affordable prices.

In 2020, we added a new brand: Urban Metals, your source for custom metal art. Browse our selection of designs or submit your own – our CNC plasma cutter turns your artistic vision into a steel reality.

“I have been in charge of purchasing at Hot Shot Welding for 7 years. We manufacture commercial and residential wrought iron railings, grand staircases, spiral stairs, and other metal products. TSS has worked with us throughout the years providing steel materials and decorative pickets and other forged metals. TSS has also provided quality products at the best pricing available in our area. Chuck Farnan is our local sales representative. He worked with me on several high profile projects to ensure that we provided our clients a first rate product at the competitive cost. I would recommend TSS to anyone in our industry.”
