Isn't tubing sized by the OD (outer dimension)? 2x2x1/4 or 2x2x3/8 or 2x2x1/8 are all 2x2 on the outside....Or am i missing something here?
The thicker the wall, it looks like the outside corners are more rounded. I don't work with a lot of structural square tubing.Want to get help from someone that does.I may be missing something too, That is why I asked!Isn't tubing sized by the OD (outer dimension)? 2x2x1/4 or 2x2x3/8 or 2x2x1/8 are all 2x2 on the outside....Or am i missing something here?
I did make one from solid for a truck (what we had on hand at the shop)I was trying to cut down on the smart a** comments.I wanted to make sure the 2x2 1/4" would the best with the receiver. Thanks for the help!Why not use solid bar stock?
I have trailer hitches made from it & they work fine.
