Our story

A working mill-supply house, not a catalogue counter.

Wieland Farmer's Copper opened on the Texas City channel in 1947, when the shipyards were running hot and the refineries were going up faster than anyone could weld them. We cut non-ferrous bar and plate for the men building those vessels, and we never stopped.

Today the yard runs six days a week. We stock copper, brass, bronze, and cupronickel in bar, plate, sheet, and tube — and we cut it to spec on the floor. Walk in with a drawing, walk out with metal. That's the deal.

Why work with us

A yard, not a website.

Stock on the floor, not on order

340+ alloys physically sitting in our Texas City yard. If the website says it's in stock, the forklift driver can put his hand on it.

Same-day cuts under 2pm

Walk in with a drawing or a sample, walk out with metal. Our saw line runs hot all day — and Saturday mornings for pickups.

Three generations on the channel

The Wieland family has run this yard since 1947. We know the shipyards, the refineries, and the fabricators — because we've been supplying them for 76 years.

Mill certs on every shipment

Material test reports with chemistry, mechanicals, and heat traceability. NAVSEA, ASME, and AWS certification packages available at order time — not as an afterthought.
