brass tubing for staples?

The 3/16" o.d. tubing does not have a 5/32" i.d.. I think the wall thickness is 0.014", if I remember right, which yields a diameter of 0.1847", which is 4.69mm i.d.. The 5/32" o.d. tubing has an i.d. of 0.12825", which is about 3.26mm. Check that math.

I thought the imperial stuff had a 1/64" wall - at least the “telescoping” stuff. No doubt it depends on the manufacturer, but from K&S I am only familiar with the latter.

That’s the stuff I’ve got as well…
