Title: Oval rod stock Post by: kingsburgphil on April 19, 2011, 00:44:52 am I'm having a hard time trying to find solid aluminum OVAL 1 inch (25mm) rod stock.
The alloy is not important and I just need enough to make one pair of nerf bars. Title: Re: Oval rod stock Post by: danny gabbard on April 19, 2011, 01:15:42 am schorr metals 714 630-1962 Placentia Ca. Try 6061 0r 5053, DO not get 2024 not weldable

Believe or not 35+ years ago when I made this set of nerf bars (right after Aronson made his) (monkey see..monkey do)the scrap metal I used came from....Schorr Metals. ;D Guess I'll give them a call.
