br In my Sproose catalog-2002 they are listed as round tie rods--right
brunder the
br streamline tie rods---nearly as expensive too---then when you add
brthe end fittings
br they really cost a bundle----get a little lathe, make your own out
brof 1/4" 316
br S.S.  rod---grind a 3 or 4" section down to 3/16" to keep from
brhaving a stress
br riser area in the threads---or have the 1/4" rod roll-threaded to
br5/16 ---make your own rod ends out of  7/16" or 1/2" hex rod---its
breither money or time either way
br you go.
