boland magyar Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 hi all i know about HRS and CRS but what is drawn steel and is it as hard as CRS. boland Quote
gazza Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Drawn steel is CRS i assume your referring to B&Q stock. Quote "There he goes. One of gods own prototypes. A high powered mutant of some kind never ever considered for mass production.Too weird to live and too rare to die."
dimmers Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 (edited) Yep, Gazza is right. B&Q list their steel rods as 'drawn steel', if this is where you are looking. I've found this to be a bit easier than fbbc stock (imo). cheers Edited June 20, 2007 by dimmers Quote
boland magyar Posted June 20, 2007 Author Posted June 20, 2007 thanks for the replies. yes it is b&q stock (6mm x 6mm square) boland Quote
gazza Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Boland B&Q drawn steel [CRS] is all over the place as regards consistency ive had 8mms[5/16"] from them that was both easier and harder than an fbbc bastard bar there 6mms drawn square is way easier than a bastard square. B&Q stuff is fine if your stuck and cannot get much steel but its very expensive and the range is crap altho there 10mms drawn CRS is a nice tough steel. I would search out a local steel supplier and ask what HRS and CRS they have i can advise you here if you like just pm or email me if your really stuck then a couple of meters of the B&Q drawn is fine otherwise stay away.
