lots of places, interlloy is one at creastmead on bris south. Also try smorgans or any large steel merchant.

the larger steel mechants on the GC only seem to carry CHS, your standard black pipe in light, med, heavy wall etc...

im looking for bit better grade but still weldable and need it for long rear trailing arms.

was looking at euro-norm from bolher, which is 45od and 25id (10mm wall) but not sure if thats enough or too much for a rear trailing arm thats 1200mm long.

its spec'd at 470mpa yield and 650 mpa tensile...

Any thoughts?

schedule 240 40mm outer and 20 inner, perfect, its what brett long runs on his mogota and is still very weldable.

it costs around $80 a metr i think, it may have been $40 a metre though as it was a few months ago and i wanted 2 metres. so i cant remember what i looked at price wise
