Boom tube source

[namba969]

Hey all,

I'm looking for a source for some .312" ID x .394" OD boom tubes. I used to get them from acp composites but it appears that size has been discontinued. I tried some from cst sales but the fibers were directional and the booms split while drilling the holes for the sponsons. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Andrew

Alternative would be to sleeve the tubes to a more available tube size.Brad

No Alex just install a tube and glue it into the ones that are already installed. But if you are building, those would be a great way to go!!

I thought about sleeving them but didn't really want to go that route. I could do that in an emergency though. However Henry set me up. I searched the site and was able to find the size I needed.

Thanks Henry and everyone for the help.
