aluminium tube

Hi

Anyone any idea where I could source some 1" diameter aluminium tube about 500mm length with a wall thickness of 2-3mm?

All local supplier round where I live either only sell large quantities or don't sell to Joe public.

Thanks

Car builders solution also put beads on the ends if it's for cooling and you could try Merlin

I have some where are you?

You get 1" aluminium cranked aerial masts at any B&Q about £7 if I mind right.

You can put beads on yourself with a bit of thought, see my photo's.
