I don't think they do any flanges at all. They do carry mandrel bent tube for downpipes and stuff. I think the price on a 3" was about $17.50.

Re: Where to get cheapest pipe fittings and mandrel bends...
I've now found two threads specifically targetting me as overpricing shipping so let me repost what I already posted on the other thread:
Our shipping prices are pulled directly through the UPS API system, they are based on weight and we add $2.00 for a box. NOBODY is ever overcharged for shipping from us.
NOW - I realise that I can get cheaper rates through DHL and FEDEX -- but my customers need their product NOW, and they get it NOW. No bullshit with UPS - ever. We ship on average of 30+ boxes a day - I have no time to play *check the tracking # and pray*.
Fedex loses every third package I've ever sent with them and their claims department is a joke - they lost a $2700 turbo system of ours 2 months ago -- and dishonored the claim.
I have no experience with DHL to say yay or nay with - but why even bother. UPS gets it there and that's all I care about. It's not worth the risk to save $5.
