While 2024 aluminum was initially designed for structural components in aircraft, it's now widely used when a high strength-to-weight ratio is needed, such as for gears, shafts, and fasteners. It offers similar performance to 7075 aluminum, but it’s not as strong.

3003 aluminum stands up to outdoor use, as well as exposure to chemicals. It offers a good combination of strength, formability, and weldability. It's often used for storage tanks, heat exchangers, garage doors, and general sheet metal work.

Also known as blue-tempered steel.

Also known as scaleless steel.

Containing more carbon than low-carbon steel—but less than 1095 spring steel—1050 spring steel is easily formed into parts such as washers, brackets, and springs before being hardened for use.

Able to withstand repeated stress and wear, 301 stainless steel has the strength required for applications such as springs and fasteners.

Because these thin sheets are harder than our other 316 stainless steel, they offer better wear resistance. Use them as a wrap, liner, or cover.

440A stainless steel resists damage from impact and abrasion. It's often used for cutlery and valve components.

As the most formable of all the PH-grade materials, 17-7 PH stainless steel is widely used in the aerospace industry for intricate parts. When hardened, this material strengthens to make it resist distortion.

Offering high electrical conductivity and formability, 110 copper is 99.9% pure. Also known as ETP copper, it's often used in electrical applications, such as for bus bars and wire connectors, as well as for flashing, gaskets, and rivets.

The most formable brass we offer, 260 offers better weldability than 300 series brass but it’s not as machinable. Sometimes called cartridge brass, it's commonly used for ammunition casings, radiator components, and decorative door hardware.

This Alloy 22 nickel resists highly corrosive environments better than similar nickel alloys, including 625 and C-276.

Able to withstand greater heat than molybdenum and other high-temperature metal, this chemically pure tungsten is ultra dense for use in high-heat parts in vacuum furnaces, heat shields, and radiation shields.

Delrin® acetal resin, also known as acetal homopolymer, is stronger and stiffer than acetal copolymer.

Conduct heat and insulate electricity. This aluminum-nitride ceramic is good for clearing heat in applications such as heat sinks, power transistor bases, and circuit carriers.

Also known as fishpaper.

These natural rubber sheets and strips will stretch up to six times their length. Use them in dynamic applications, such as vibration isolators and shock mounts.
