[QUOTE="onzah, post: 167157, member: 6562"] [b]maybe, maybe not[/b] THe stiffness is a function of the strength of the material and the shape. As you stated all thread is about the worst case scenario of stiffness vs. weight. A piece of pipe the same diameter as the all thread will be nearly as stiff and not nearly as heavy and will have the same stiffness in all directions. The same could be said of aluminum square stock. You would be better off using square or round tubing as the material in the center of the stock is not adding much if any strength or stiffness.
