Building a covered work area with a 40' span, will this work?

The main reason for the availability right now is that the oil patch in South Texas is essentially shut down because of low oil prices. That's put a LOT of white and yellow band drill pipe on the local market for as little as $26 for a 31' joint. Yellow band pipe is still 85% or more of it's original thickness so it'll take a LONG time to rust out.

That said, I hear what you're saying and with orange or red band, it is definitely a serious concern. I'm not saying I disagree with you, I'm just thinking on the keyboard.

I never heard of the color band rating for drill stem pipe. I'm seeing 2 3/8s pipe for $20 a joint and 2 7/8s for $30 a joint with 4 1/2 going for $2.50 a foot. None of the ads I've saved mention a color of any kind. I'm wanting it for an 8 foot deer fence around my land and while I want to save money, I also want to do it once and move on to other things.

What are all the colors and what do they mean?
