21mm Steel Bar/Rod

Can anyone oblige with some steel bar/rod? Its got to be 21mm diameter and I'm after 3 pieces at 35mm each. They're for the bushes on my pedals, I'm not happy with what I have at the moment.

I could turn you some up if you want. Wouldn't cost the earth to send to you.

Wouldn't tube be better/lighter ?

Not sure what you mean by tube being better? I've got a piece of tube/pipe welded into the pedal and the idea with this is that I drill a 10mm hole down the middle of the bar for the bolt and the pedal will pivot on this bar/bush. Tube may be easier I didn't think and didn't want to ask for the holes drilling too, not wanting to take up peoples building time
If you could help though it would be great.

Ahhh. You already have a tube like I pictured.
No prob to bore a hole. Far easier to do it in
the lathe than afterwards anyway.
