Quote: I think most of you are missing the point, what is the cost of I beams? what is the cost of H beams? is it really worth it?
You implied in that statement that if you can get an H beam for the price of an I beam, why wouldn't you do so. IMO, same weight rod to same weight rod, of same material, the I beam has some strength benefits. Btw, are you aware the Scat I beams are 4340 forgings, The Eagle SIR rods are 5140
we were talking chinese crap, not oliver quality
Doesn't matter what price point ..... 4340 is inherantly stronger than 5140, and there is no design liability in using an I beam over an H beam.
