To quote the 45G is constructed on and 18" equilateral triangle patter, utilizing 1 1/2" OD , 14 Gauge , special quality steel tubing, of solid steel rod legs. They say it's available, but don't list any sections of that construction.

HOWEVER I find no mention of the strength/load or part numbers in my catalog.

73
