They do make a structural steel rectangular tube in both 10"x 2" and 12" x 2" weighing in at 14.53 and 17.08 lbs per foot respectively. The only problem is that they both have a minimum wall thickness of 3/16" (.1875"). I'm not sure what you're using it for, it may be too thick or too thin. Call a metal supplier near you that deals with structural steel.
Just a note, my reference book (catalog) is old enough to drink legally in the US, so things might have changed since then.
The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

No, those sizes are still available, but still a minimum wall of .188". But you bring up a good point, I just assumed True needed something much thinner because of the picture he posted.
It's out there if you can use .188" wall True. Sorry for assuming.-Matt
