Just in case you're confused. The bar is 2" Schedule 40 steel pipe. The 2" refers to the nominal INSIDE diameter. Schedule 40 refers to the pressure rating, which determines the wall thickness. The OUTER diameter of the pipe is roughly 2.375". For safety's sake we're assuming 2.5".

Bending our welded hook at a competition would be a real pain.
