I have a toilet seat and cover that are connected by a rod running through them. It is about six inches, say 15cm long.
The original flexible plastic rod broke after 30 years. Th nearest replacement that I could find was acrylic rod.
I have had two so far but they crack after about a year.
I would consider a stainless steel rod if I could get one of those dimensions (150mm by 9mm dia) but would prefer some kind of flexible plastic.
Can anyone recommend a source?
TIA
Nylon or PTFE rod.
12" is 304mm
Acrylic isn't a load bearing material - too brittle.
Nylon rod is a reasonable engineering plastic for that sort of thing. Offcut lengths available on eBay. You may be out of luck though 9mm is not a popular size most stock bar is 8mm or 10mm.
That was the most helpful reply. Thank you.
