All I can find is 0.065. > Buly > Sorry, Buly, forgot to include my source of long ago. RBWagner has 304 and 316 SS tubes and pipes of every bend radius and size you would be interested in. I think there is a minimum $75 order - but still. I used the 1 1/2" pipe (actually 1.9" dia) with 0.109" thick walls. So it comes out to very close to a 2" dia tube with 0.109" thick walls. http://www.wagnercompanies.com/Elbows_and_Wall_Returns_for_Pipe_and_Tube.aspx Ed
