I'm making a handle for a Tektronix scope. I talked to Ed and he thinks it's stainless as I also thought. But the grade is in question.
If you have a Tek scope with the metal handle, take a look at it and see if you can tell me what it is. If you don't, what kind of stainless would you use for a squared off U-shaped handle that wouldn't bend outta shape and remain springy enough to hold at the ends. The width is 5/8" and the thickness is 1/8".
I'd post pics but they wouldn't tell much. All I can say is it looks like it has a brushed finish. When the handle I have comes out of the mold (for the ends) I'll try posting one.
Given this limited info, anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!!!
