Hi all,



I'm desperate for a piece of 4130 square tube that I need to finish my door latching system.

The size is 3/8x3/8 OD x 6"-12" long (.049 wall).

Aircraft Spruce has stopped supplying that small size and other on line suppliers have a 

 minimum of $50. an order.  Ridiculous for such a small piece.

If such an animal is lying around your shop, let me know and I'll buy it .

Al,

  

 Couldn't you just use a solid alum rod instead?  If it's only 3/8" by 3/8" the weight difference wouldn't matter.
