Here are the very basics of what I need. If you know someone who can
offer it, please let me know and I'll put you or the contact in touch
with my engineer / purchasing guy to see if we can place an order. He
will provide drawings and better specs.

DOM tubing - steel

2.750" ID +/- 0.001" (prefer 0.0005")

3.000" OD

5.430" length per part.

Hard Chome Plating inside prior to honing will likely be necessary.

I don't care if the folks do it in 40' lengths and then part it to
length or if they do it piece by piece... I simply need the parts
made and am doing all I can to stay out of Asia for these... HELP!?!

Quantities are not huge, but not 5 pc. orders either. We would
probably order around 250 pcs. on an order after seeing proof of
quality.


Isn't that basically hydraulic cylinder tubing which I believe is
available off the shelf and not very expensive?


A quick search show 2.750" ID and 3.125" OD honed hydraulic cylinder
tubing is a standard stock item. http://www.teamtubellc.com under honed
tubing is one example.


2.745" to 2.755" is their range. Unacceptable for what I need.
