Anyone know offhand of a source for stainless steel tubing mailorder
.I've had a look but not found anywhere .I'm looking for tubing that
will take M6 threaded rod so possibly M8 OD would do .


Somewhere that builds food or drinks machines maybe ? Maybe a model supplies
shop or company ? Stainless is not easy stuff to work with as it tends to
work harden.

It'll just be short straight lengths so there will only be cutting
involved and no bending. I need it to cover threaded rod .I'm making
a rod carrier using glaziers suction devices that you stick to car
bonnets and roofs to carry fishing rods short distances .
Thx for your help.
