Hope this is of some use.

Any place that fits towbars should be able to supply you with it.

Go To any steel fab shop or supplier.
haymen and reece are a towbar maker not a steel manafacture.

ONESTEEL, a satelite company of BHP. Or any other steel supplier!

Onesteel only sell full lengths here. We have another place called The Steel Store that cuts short lengths for these sort of jobs but it's not going to help you down there. Look up steel merchants and ring around until you find one that will sell you half a metre.

You won't get it unless you can get it from Haymen Reece direct, it's a custom section with a larger than standard radius in the corners. You may be able to find similar external sizing but it still won't be the same as the Haymen Reece section.
Regards Andrew.

Ill second that. I tried to buy a length of it a few years ago and couldnt find a towbar company that would sell any of it or give me a number to someone who would.

we use it at work for telescopic winch booms, easy to get once you find the right supplier, but usually have to buy a lenth, cant remember the suppliers name we used last but try smorgans most of works stuff is supplied by them.
Its somethin like 63 x 63 x 6

Some steel suppliers list "telescoping tube" along with the normal RHS/SHS selection.
I haven't looked into it in detail, but it could be worth it.

I just got some last week from the local steel shop, around $40 a meter. I was charged $6 for 150mm.
