[QUOTE="jerry, post: 9505, member: 931"] Tazza , I worked for Serco log loaders and in the winter when it would get 20 -30 below 0 F it was not uncommon to see 2 inch and even 2.5 inch cylinder rods come in snapped off. cylinders with 1/4 inch walls will split lengthwise also. cold makes a difference, although the better grades of steel such as 4140 may be more brittle since they are harder to begin with. just my own thoughts.
