Re: [RC] aluminum stirrups - Sisu West Ranch

"...On the other hand I also suspect the Aluminum that goes
into stirrups is not the highest grade of undergoes extensive QC testing..."

You are right, but I suspect that the variation you saw is more typical of extruded or molded parts. My aluminum stirrups were made by bending a stamped sheet of Aluminum. I would expect a rolling mill to produce a pretty much void free product. On the other hand if it were to be using remelted scrap, various batches could vary widely in their properties.
