HPS Performance Products 3-1/8" OD 6061 Aluminum Straight Pipe Tubing 16 Gauge 1 Foot Long
$30.74

If you're diving into a custom project, this HPS 6061 Aluminum Straight Tubing is a solid choice. With an outside diameter of 3-1/8 inches (80mm) and a length of 1 foot, it strikes a nice balance between size and versatility. The 16 gauge (1.65mm) wall thickness gives it enough sturdiness for serious applications without being a pain to work with.

This tubing is made from 6061-T6 aluminum, which is a favorite in the automotive and marine worlds. Why? Because it’s lightweight yet tough, making it perfect for everything from DIY air intakes to cooling systems and turbo intercooler piping setups. I've used this stuff in a few projects, and it really holds up under pressure.

One of the best things about this tubing is how easy it is to customize. Whether you’re fabricating something for your car or boat, or even tackling an aerospace project, this tubing can handle it. The mill finish gives it a raw look that I think adds character, and it’s just begging for some creative modifications.

So if you're looking to build something unique, this straight aluminum tube could be just what you need. It's reliable, easy to work with, and ready to take on whatever you throw at it. Just remember, it’s not just about the specs; it’s about what you can create with it.
