Joining 1 inch SS tubing
 
I need to join two pieces of 1" SS rail tubing. I would rather avoid time and expense of getting it welded. Does anyone know where I can find a straight 1" coupling? Internet search does not find one. Any ideas
thanks

take a caliper and measure the internal diameter. Then find something that fits that dimension and slide the outer stainless over it

Did you try "Overtons"? They carry a bunch of stuff for making boat bimini's , etc.

Could also try Mcmaster Carr.....

Not sure about stainless though

the metal source

they got more scraps of more kinds of metal than you could imagine. walk in the door and it's all right there.
cash & carry by the pound.
Like nebe said get an insert then thru bolt it.
