    Pedigree included same as in aviation or aerospace maintenance and manufacturing. Even the raw materials must have a pedigree and paper trail that can be traced. The FAA was able to track down the forging used in the turbine disk that exploded on a DC-10. Race cars are no different. When someone is putting his/her life on the line, Chineseium won’t cut it esp not in my Shop

    4130 Chinesium tubing Chinesium - An element not found on the periodic table. A crappy metal, plastic, or chemical substance made in China in the manufacture of many Chinese exports. Exposure is imminent in one’s lifetime and may strike with or without warning. Chinesium can display a variety of unique properties and is found in abundance. With exposure side effects vary greatly depending on the user. If you experience any of the following symptoms, you may be at risk and should seek a dumpster or a certified R2 recycling facility immediately. Side effects include: Annoyance, fear, loss of sleep, burning sensation, loss of revenue, reduced net worth, poor conductivity or connectivity, high resistance, ridicule by peers, loss of limb, or death. Always use personal safety equipment such as gloves, safety glasses, and respiratory protection when handling Chinesium. If you have direct contact with Chinesium, STOP, DROP, AND ROLL. Should you find Chinesium and are unsure of what to do: STOP, DON’T TOUCH, CALL AN ADULT.

    country of origin is not the issue, quality of material is. china produces whichever quality you want, it all depends on the reseller and price. plenty of material made domestically is also junk. this myth that everything coming from china is rubbish needs to be addressed. the basic reality is that if people continue to mass consume crap at an alarming rate, china will continue to mass produce crap at an alarming rate. the responsibility lies with you, the consumer, and with the disgustingly relentless marketing that drives the impossibility of endless market growth. responsibility does not lie with the manufacturer. it's a very simple equation: if you want china (and any other country, including the US) to stop producing crap, stop buying it.
