Spectre

Thanks Phil. Simple answer for a simple question. :) Thanks to all for your concerns, but we have our reasons for not using other sources (retail=$$), and are limited in what equipment we have to complete our tasks. "Ya gotta do whatcha gotta do" to get the job done with limited resources. :)

Hi, I have a 15k forklift that needs a pin for towing a 35,000 lb test skid (short distances in our lot). The pin that goes through the tow bar is bent and keeps getting stuck in the hole. What I'm looking for is a good, bend-resistant steel bar stock, 1.375 inch dia. I am afraid that tool steel may be too brittle, especially in the cold environment we work in (far Northern NY State). Does anyone have any recommendations? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. Todd
