www.mcmaster.com has 36" 316SS for $8.59 in 1/4-20, also brass ($10.14),
silicon bronze ($49.74), titanium ($74.16), and monel ($81.25) :-).
They have 24" pieces, too, but in fewer materials. A good place to
check chemical compatibilities is:
http://www.coleparmer.com/techinfo/chemcomp.asp Looks like bronze and
316SS beat brass for sodium hypochlorite (but your pool better not be
anywhere near 20%-)) and salt water.

I am having trouble finding this. I need 1/4 - 20 in two 24" lengths.
I may have to bite the bullet and get it online if I can't find it
locally. Any ideas to what sort of business may have this? It's for a
pool filter, and when I ask, a glazed look comes over their eyes.
