I'm seeking sources for 35mm DIN rail. Can't find any local [DC area] and the shipping charges places charge on 1 meter lengths is insane.
Anyone found a better way?

Amazon Prime has din rails, free shipping.
It's amazing how much electronic stuff Amazon has.

Hah, I was going to suggest amazon or McMaster-carr.

I ran into this problem as well.
Spend $50 on other stuff at zoro.com and it ships for free.
They come with nice sturdy mailing tubes as a bonus.

I believe shipping is free for orders over $50, otherwise a flat $10.

Priced them, but found the free shipping wasn't when you looked up the prices elsewhere. (Exception: if I bought ten metre-long pieces...)
Agreed. And hardware.... Quantity one nylon screw @ HD, $0.61 whereas 100 @ Amazon are $2.90

Never heard of them, but solved the issue by checking at local W.W. Grainger. It's $7.60 for a meter-long AL rail.

About half of the items that I've bought from Zoro are in Grainger's packaging. That makes a lot of sense, since it is owned by Grainger.
