Spreader bars (Europe supplier)?

[Snowball]

I have been looking around and as far as I can tell 0.625” (= 16mm) tent poles is recommended for bridge hammocks but I can’t find a supplier in Europe and it will be expensive to import from US. I have to pay more in import taxes and fees than for the poles and end caps If not questoutfitters would be my choice.
Extremtextil.de have 11mm at but they are too small.
It has to be aluminum!
Any ideas for EU suppliers?

The aluminum poles used are Easton Expedition poles. That may help narrow your search.

We have a similar dealer in Denmark but carbon is expensive (x3). Too expensive when I don’t know if a bridge hammock is for me.
What did you do with the ends and the joint? I assume you cut the tubes to length.
I made a kite with Carbon tubes once and it ended badly (minor tube inside).

I'm going to build myself some poles for my RidgeRunner using stock carbon tubes. head end 10mm OD with 2mm wall. the ferrules will be 8mm OD (also 2mm wall). foot end will be 8mm with 6mm ferrule. cost me $40 in tubing
