I make my damper rods from anodized alu tube, with threaded inserts at both ends.I guess you mean alloyed steel? Damper rods need to be made out of steel due to (internal) spring/rod friction, which necessitates a hard surface.
It's surprising vendors like RGM do not list a rod made of an alloyed steel.
I wonder what kind of rods Don fits in his Lansdowne damper kits?
(damper caps ertacetal). I can see no sign of wear caused by the spring.
