Not sure if the Ferrateria at MonteCastillo does it or their main branch in Puerto, but may be worth asking.  Otherwise, I have got mine from a builders yard located behind the Disa petrol station as you come out of Puerto del Rosario towards Caleta.  They have a selection of size of Picon and have found them to be very reasonable in price.

Yes you can get 5 bags (20 kg) for â,¬10 . Don't know if they deliver or do bulk deliveries.
Don't speak much English but bolsa picon they understand.

Try the place behind electron and nortysur that's right in the far corner of the industrial estate.  Been told it has a wide selection at very good prices.  Not sure if they deliver.  Maybe someone else would now that....

If a large quantity is needed go and speak to the guys with the lorries who park up just inside the industrial estate at Puerto (as you come off the roundabout and go to turn right for Ideal). I'm told they are best priced for larger quantities.
Make sure you are clear what size pieces you want and what colour - perhaps take a very small sample with you?
Picon is the smaller size (like peas) that gets stuck in your sandals whereas Grava is a bit larger (1-2 cm)
