climber511 Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I just bent a piece of 5/16" HRS 7" long. My best previous was 1/4" x 6" Grade V. It felt tough the whole way and seemed harder to crush than the Grade V but it didn't fight back the way the bolts do. Harder or easier than the Grade V?

mikebuck Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Congratulations on your pr. I would say the 5/16 hr is harder than the g5. I have tried the 5/16x7 cr and cant bend it. Got the g5 over the weekend. And between the 1/4 cr and hr I havent noticed much diferance. Anyway, great job Climber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stew2 Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Way to go Chris I've been wanting to try some HR but everytime I go to the hardware they're out of the 5/16. Glad to hear what you think about it I've kinda layed off the bending for a month(but not completely) was really getting sore. Those bolts really do fight back don't they . Great job on the bend!
