Only using about 3 inches of the stuff on each side, and this is not your
standard patio furniture, but the heavy duty self supporting stuff - you
know, the $300/chair Hauser stuff with no loops - down the back, forward for
the seat, down the leg, back, across, and repeat for the other side -
supports 300 pounders with ease for several years without cracking? Would
not be surprised from the way it drills and taps that it is 6061. The round
ends are over 1/4" thick, and it is definitely stronger than the average AL
casting. Almost a perfect match for the coolant passage in the EA81
head/manifold in cross-section.
I do appreciate your concern, as many guys might try to flatten a peice of
a standard $5 chair tube and try to use it!!!
If anyone needs some, I can likely arrange supply at a reasonable cost.
I can put a picture in the drop-box if anyone thinks they may be interested.
