anyone know where i can source on triangular tubing ? be it steel or aluminium ? steel would be better as it would be used for rock sliders
size would be a right angle triangle with the 2 sides that form the 90 degrees being 50mm

ive search on google with no luck ?
might have to get some angle bar and some flat bar and make it :(

I don't think there is any such thing. you're better off with a rectangular or round section for sliders to give a better stiffness to weight ratio anyway.

why do you want triangular?

cheers

I dont remember ever seeing this available in steel unless specially made, however Im pretty confident its fairly standard in aluminium........just ring some of your local decent sized aluminium dealers.
