I need a short piece of 1" ID tube for the drain on an aluminum boat I
recently repaired. I've started realizing that may not be so easy to find.
I figured for a scrap piece Ebay would be my friend, but no such luck.
Then I checked Speedy Metals and Discount Steel on-line. Still no luck.
There is plenty of 6061 options available, but no 5052. I'm about at that
point where I am thinking I may have to make a piece of tube.

Any suggestions?

Anneal some 6061??
