We get our 4"x3" tube from Alro or Clinton Aluminum.

You should put on emphasis on designing around materials that are easy to acquire.
This is great advice. If you can't find it on McMaster it is most likely not a standard component that is readily available.

That said, 4"x3" tube is available from McMaster.
