Sig..... there's a local place... Harleysville... J Schmidt... their #3104
has 5/16-18 thread, 3.75" long with 2.25" thread length, for 2" OD tubing.-
$2.05 each.  Several other sizes. Lots of other SS hardware too.  Check out
their website www.jschmidtstainless.com . I buy from them OTC all the time.
Good prices, nice people.
