Anybody know of a source for 14" OD aluminum tube? OnlineMetals lists a 14"OD x 0.5" wall x 13" ID 6061 tube which is pretty much exactly what i want. But... (sad trombone sound) it turns out to be an inactive part # and they don't actually have it. I would consider other options than 6061 as long as I can get a decent hardcoat anodize on it. I'll also consider a thicker wall and I can thin it back if necessary.
I only need a small length, less than 6" will suffice.
The other option is to cut what I need out of soild plate but the material cost is pretty high so if I can find ready made tube it should be much cheaper.
Thanks,
Mike
