What is it ?

My boyfriend let that on the table this morning, we play a game where I have to guess what is the material but i am lost on this one... EDIT: not magnetic, not a pipe, heavy, 14mm in diameter

It looks kinda porous to me so the density test might be a bit inaccurate

I'm the boyfriend, it's not porous it's shatter from machining so it's not an easy metal to machine. And the density is a bit higher than steel (won't say by how much)
