hello,


it sounds like you have 1.5 inch schedule 80 PIPE.


1.9 inch OD x 1.5 inch ID. 0.2 inch wall.


TUBING that is specified at 2 inches is almost exactly that OD. there is some 
small variation, both + or - in size. if you use a 2 inch bearing you would 
probably have to hone the bearing as most times the actual size is a few 1000's 
over size. PIPE will fit but too loose to be of much use. check with the 
supplier when ordering TUBING. it is possible that they have 2 inch tubing 
which is on the - side. honing a bearing is difficult because of its hardness.




"C" clamps with saddles work well but solid clamps work better. you can shim 
the PIPE to fit.


73,
