aero tubing suppliers

[thewelder]

I am looking for 4130 aero or teardrop shaped tubing. Does anyone know of any suppliers that carry it in the US. I found a place in england but none in the US and I really don't want to pay shipping from england. Thanks Chad

Chad: Stream line tubing can be gotten from Aircraft Spruce (877-477-7823) or Wicks Aircraft Supply (800-654-7447).They also carry CM in sizes up to 2.750.I get my tubing locally from Rocco Steel (Chicago area)847-678-4533.And usually at far better prices,especially if you can buy random lengths.Hope this helps!

If there is such an animal as mild steel streamline tubing, the most likely people to have it, will be Dillsburg Aeroplane Works, in Pennsylvania. They do not have a website. They can be reached by phone at 717 432 4589.
