Snyders stainless hood rods

I just got Stainless Steel Hood RODS from Snyders---except they are not RODS, they are hollow tubing! I talked to Don and he says I am the first to complain in 20 years of selling tubing advertised as Rods. Tubing couldnt possibly be as good as a solid rod. Also I got Snyders chrome rear hood bracket. It looks cheap. Then I found out that Brattons has a Stainless and a chrome one. The bad part is we order this stuff without knowing how poor it is then its not worth the effort to ship it back.

<font size=4> center, has a lever on it and goes down to the light switch through the center of the steering column? Is it called a "Light Switch Tube"?? Doesn't sound right...

As a slender bar or tube. Actually a tube is much stronger than a bar.

Bratton's and Snyder's catalogs list it as "Light Switch Rod". I do not know what Henry called it.

If made of the same material and the same diameter a solid bar is stronger than a tube. If made of the same material and the same weight a tube is stronger than a solid bar.

But the diameter of the tube would have to be bigger than that of the solid bar for them to have the same weight if they were both the same length.
