Jabba ordered 9056K151. $38.69 for a one foot length of 2" o.d. 1" i.d. 6061 aluminum tube.
Jesse is right, there are cheaper sources. I change my password more frequently now, to make it more difficult for Jabba to place unauthorized McMaster orders. He prefers them because they deliver his material next day.
