STEEL rods for a speaker stand

[thomp1983]

I can get a steel rod made with the ends turned down to whatever size you need and a thread cutting on.

The stands are probably a metric size thread, nip to your local Wilkinson or b and q they both do loose nuts and bolts and buy an m5, m6 and m8 nut and see which fits the thread, or take the thread with you and try instore

If you could find a steel tube of the correct inner bore, these

Might work?

You'd use a hefty screwdriver to drive these into each end of the tube, perhaps with loctite.
The end result would be an internal thread (say M5) so you could then use a short piece of M5? Studding (or a cut down bolt) inserted to result in a short threaded end.

Obviously you could do this either by the previously mentioned long studding covered by a slightly shorter tube, or by tapping an internal thread inside a tube. However that may be more than you are able to do

Can you explain again what you mean when you say: 'previously mentioned long studding covered by a slightly shorter tube'. To tap a thread into the inside of a tube I need a tool like that, right? It is probably easier to control a hand tool than a frill if I don't have a drill stand
