Are you talking about a handlebar stem? It is beyond me why Worksman builds the toughest bike on the planet and puts a cheap Wald stamped steel stem on it. I always tell people to find a good forged steel vintage Schwinn Stingray stem from about 1970. You can find them all day long for $20. A very good quality made in the USA stem.

yeah, Wald products have really gone downhill. sucks, since they've been around since the early 1900's.

we don't take kindly to that stupid metric system here in america, bobby, but just so ya know. 1" = 25.4mm :)
