The most widely used aluminum, 6061 is fabricated into everything from pipe fittings and containers to automotive and aerospace parts. It is strong and corrosion resistant, plus it's easy to machine and weld.

An anodized coating on these U-channels forms a bond with the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.

In addition to being more corrosion resistant and easier to form than multipurpose 6061 aluminum, these hat channels have flanges that make them easy to mount on flat surfaces.

Also known as mild steel, low-carbon steel is easy to machine, form, and weld. It's widely fabricated into parts that don’t require high strength.

From cookware to chemical-processing equipment, 304 stainless steel is a good all-around choice for a wide range of applications.

The addition of molybdenum gives 316 stainless steel excellent corrosion resistance. Use it in a variety of marine and chemical-processing applications.

Often called architectural bronze, 385 brass is easy to machine and has excellent formability when heated. It is typically used for handrails, ornamental trim, and hardware, such as hinges and lock bodies.

Slide the strut channel into the tube for telescoping length adjustments.

Half the height and the same width as regular strut channel, this low-profile strut channel fits into tight spots and is compatible with many of the same brackets.

This welded, one-piece strut channel combines two strut channels side-to-side.

For compatibility with quick-connect clamps to secure pipe and conduit without screws and tools, this strut channel has narrow slotted holes.

Add hardware to strut channel without having to hold the washer in place or reach inside the channel.

Rails are drilled with consistently spaced holes for multiple mounting options that do not require machining. Use this steel bolt-together framing to build guards, tables, and racks.

No need for fasteners—friction holds this framing together. Use press-fit framing and fittings to assemble carts, enclosures, and partitions.

Create strong structures by welding this framing together. Add metal panels to close off openings.

Because PVC resists many acids and alkalies, it’s widely used for tanks and in chemical-processing applications. Also known as PVC Type 1.

Because this polypropylene resists swelling when exposed to water, it’s often fabricated into containers and parts for laboratory equipment.

This extruded acrylic offers similar performance as cast acrylic at a lower cost.

At only half the weight of glass, polycarbonate maintains excellent impact resistance across a wide temperature range. It's comparable to Lexan, Hyzod, Tuffak, and Makrolon.

Commonly used in transformers and switch gear cans on electrical poles, these rectangular tubes are more electrically insulating than Garolite XX.

Offering excellent arc and track resistance, this GPO3 fiberglass is often used for electrical applications in humid environments.

Route and insulate wire using these square fiberglass tubes, which fit better along edges and around corners than round tubes.

An alternative to wood in structural applications, FRP fiberglass is strong and lightweight.

Often used to make railings, edge covers, and other structural framing parts, these carbon fiber U-channels add stiffness and strength to applications without adding a lot of weight.

Reduce noise caused by HVAC systems. These sturdy rubber supports isolate vibration caused by heat pumps and air conditioning units, resulting in a quieter facility. When used on roofs, they also keep components above puddled water, which can cause damage.
