I have never had good luck with Hy-Gain tips but fortunately I have only used these for temporary contest antennas. I used to buy Ø7/16 6061 with a .048? wall from Metal-Cable - KE8QM. I wanted to buy more a couple of years ago but David said that he retired and I never found it for a reasonably price online. I would try commercial suppliers such as Central Steel and Wire or Ryerson. If you find a supplier please post your results.

I need some 7/16" OD aluminum tubing, and was wondering if there is a source that carries this OD tubing with a thicker wall than the .028" that Hy-Gain carries.
