From memory it comes in 2 mm increments, starting at around 4 mm and covers the sizes you are after(brass tube, again in metric sizes, is available from 2 mm O.D. up to about 6 mm).

Steve Hiatt Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 You might try Andy at Allisport as he's not too far from you, may well have an off cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
