Default Bit of a long shot, but question about Group A roll bars

Anyone know what they were made from?

Just wondering how stiff they actually were. If I got the material type, I could work it out, but obviously not the easiest thing to find out!

Just wondering if anyone has had any dealings with it that might save me some time!

I did assume it would be something along those lines Mark lol

Just interested to try and find out the stiffness. Do you know what material it was? Got the diameter and wall thickness, so if I've got the material, I might be able to find out what I need!

14 SWG and 10136Nm stiffness for an RS2000, the Escort WRC has that and 2 other different stiffness bars listed. No idea on actual material.
