Re: [AFMUG] Pipe
I am running a field trial right now on cold galv spray paint, plasma arc spray, regular paint and galv stick for repair of hot dipped galv parts. So far the cold galv spray paint is actually seeming to be OK. I know chain link fence people use it for the welds on the gates they make. I have never trusted it. But I think I may be changing my opinion.

Re: [AFMUG] Pipe
If you have an electrical supply store nearby, they should carry 3" (trade size) IMC or rigid conduit. IMC will be considerably lighter and actually stiffer than rigid. -Original Message- From: AF On Behalf Of Matt Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2019 10:32 AM To: af@af.afmug.com Subject: [AFMUG] Pipe Has anyone found a local source for pipe with OD of around 3.5 inches heavy enough for mounting larger dishes, etc?

Re: [AFMUG] Pipe
A local fencing supply place here has galvanized up to 8" in lengths up to 20'. It's probably not quite as heavy as what you'd buy from some place like site solutions, but it's still pretty heavy stuff. I used their 4" for ice bridge posts and it's been solid. About a year ago, I had ordered some 4" from a tower company and it ended up taking a long time so I bought the 4" from the fencing supply place and it was fine. Price wise, it was comparable after shipping the other stuff.
