plated in mine but I don't really like the idea of other "unknown" metals against
my nutsack. For you guys that have ordered from Mcmasters, how about help a
brother out and hook me up with at least the item number because I swear I cannot not find it on their webpage. Also, for those who have ordered it, anyone looking to sell just a 2 inch piece that they have leftover???? I have found the copper and latex with no problems at my local Lowe's.
Thanks,

Just got my zinc and copper yesterday from McMaster. Here are the part numbers:
Zinc corrosion inhibitor plug...........3606 K1
Alloy 101 oxygen-free copper 3/8" diameter rod........8965 K141
These are the part numbers taken directly from the shipping invoice. They shipped my stuff by FedEx pripity mail, so the shipping charges where just as much as the copper and zinc. When I ordered I left the "ship by" box checked to thier default which was "ship by best route". If I would have know their default shipping was Fed-Ex priority to the tune of almost $15, I would have selected a different shipping option from thier selection. Just a FYI.
