Let me know if you don't get them locally Jimmy, I have 2.4 stainless here trouble is the postage is worse than the material. The minute you take something long to the post office they see ££ signs! But none the less I have them if you're stuck! Bob

Hi Jimmy,
Just spotted your need for rods. If you don't get any luck, try this company.
This is where I used to buy mine from, they are 2.4 x 1mtr (40 per tube). Sorry I can't help, used all mine up
Good luck mate.
