Default Does a 2"x1/4" mild steel tube slide inside a 2.5"x1/4" tube?

I need to construct something that will slide occasionally inside a
2.5"x1/4" steel tube. I want to use a 2"x1/4 to fit inside a 2.5"x1/4"
Do they fit? I've only got piece of 2.5" to measure at the moment. In
theory looks like it will.
The length is approx 36", and the lenght of slide is only 5-6". I'd
like it to be a close fit but not too tight as it might bind. It's
going to be part of the frame of a 2"x72" belt grinder. Where the main
frame holding the axle will extend or contract depending on the grinder
attachments.
