Replacing PTO tube

Kickinbull · Apr 18, 2017

I am trying to find a pipe or tube to replace a pto tube for small forage wagon. I haven't had any luck. Here's what I need, 1&7/8 ID 2 ft long. I've been to steel sales business. Asked neighbors and they don't have anything either. Has anyone done this before and where would be a place to get the piece? Thanks.

Try a local welding shop. Most will also have the u's and crosses....

I made my own by welding 2 angle irons together.

Check out the A513 tubing available from Online metals. They have several choices for 1.875 ID tubing depending on the wall thickness you need.

If I remember right I think you live close to Columbia, have you tried Sandusky sales? Or maybe a muffler shop.

Isn't 2" steel conduit about that size? Does it have to be exact?

I use pvc works well, doesn't rattle as much

You're talking about the tube for the square PTO shafts? Anyone that carries a Weasler shaft rack should be able to get that tubing, if they don't have it on the shelf. Cut the old stuff off the yolk and square adapter, fit the new stuff up, PHASE the joints correctly.. and weld. No biggie.
Sometimes the truck parts shops carry drive lines too.
