Hi guys, A couple of simple ones: 1: What is the diameter (mm) of the AKAS bars? 2: What is the grade/type of alloy they're made from - and is it 'weldable'? Cheers, Mike. |

The original akas are welded, so... yes, weldable. We usually use 6061 T-6 |

About 1 5/8" OD for you Yanks. |

Hmm... So are they 50mm, or 41mm (1 5/8")?  I need the external diameter of the tubing, as I'm trying to design a mounting plate to fit a Scotty #241 deck mount... It'll be welded to the AKAS cross-member (behind the seat). Cheers, Mike. |

My 2007 AI Aka tubes (not the crossbars) are 1 5/8" OD, therefore 41mm. That's a center round reading, and due to stamping they will vary in shape as you move out toward the ends. |
