![Boyd Metals](https://blog.boydmetals.com/hubfs/blogs/2020%20Blogs/20200625-3-resources-from-boyd-metals/20200625-3-resources-from-boyd-metals-long.png)

At Boyd Metals, we are unique in the way that we do business. We care about our customers and pride ourselves on going above and beyond to provide them with better service and more value than any other company in the metal service center industry.

One of the many ways we do this is by having a wide variety of [free resources](https://boydmetals.com/resource-center/) readily available on our [website](https://www.boydmetals.com/). Whether you need to source materials quickly, find the [right pipe](https://info.boydmetals.com/guide-to-pipe-sizes) schedule, or make some quick conversions on the fly, we are here to help. 

Check out three of our favorite resources below and learn how they can help assist you with your projects. 

#### **Digital Stock Book**

[Boyd Metals' Digital Stock Book](https://info.boydmetals.com/download-the-boyd-metals-pdf-stock-and-reference-guide) makes it easy to find the specs, materials, and services you need for your project. Use the table of contents to explore our full range of high-quality products and quickly locate what you need. If you can’t find what you’re looking for in our digital PDF stock book, [give our sales team a call](https://boydmetals.com/contact-us/), and they will be more than happy to help. Locating less common materials is our specialty!**[![Download Our Digital Stock Book](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/1890849/ab9cf373-748f-4bc3-a912-bb8d84e24a8a.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/1890849/ab9cf373-748f-4bc3-a912-bb8d84e24a8a)**

#### Pipe Size Guide

Tired of guessing what specs you need? Save yourself some time and [download our Pipe Size Guide](https://info.boydmetals.com/boyd-metals-guide-to-pipe-sizes-landing). It has everything you need to know about steel pipe dimensions, schedules, strengths, and the [PVF products](https://blog.boydmetals.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-pvf) available at Boyd metals. **[![Download Our Pipe Size Guide](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/1890849/71532651-4b93-4562-9413-c54b70504ec3.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/1890849/71532651-4b93-4562-9413-c54b70504ec3)**

#### **Decimal to Conversion Chart**

When your project requires you to convert fractions to decimals or decimals to millimeters…don’t sweat it. We're here to help you work smarter, not harder.
