It all depends. it can be a 5 foot thick by 3inch long G8 bar ? The hardest offical bend to date is a 3/8 thick 7 inch long CRS bar

Those sound like timber ties, not normal 60Ds. It doesn't matter, people around here bend square stock.

Grade 2's have a very wide range of variance. Some are like bending a fork from your silverware drawer, some 5/16" are like a tough 1/4" grade 8 or higher. There are progression lists at the top of this page that will give you a good feel.

Stainless (shiny Bastards) are about the same as a Bastard on the start, but get much harder on the crush. They feel like a Bastard at maybe 1" - 1.5" shorter on the finish.

Hexabastards are tougher on the start than a Bastard , but easier on the finish.

Grade 8's are very tough on the finish, springy.
