Coated with an aluminum-silicon alloy, these sheets resist corrosion while withstanding long-term exposure to high temperatures. Use in drying ovens, furnaces, and smokestacks.

With a thickness that's precision ground to a tight tolerance, these bars are sometimes called flat stock.

Also known as black-annealed wire.

Coated with PVC for corrosion resistance, this carbon steel wire will stand up to outdoor use.

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.

Made of rigid low-carbon steel, these I-beams are often used in construction, framing, lifting, and hoisting applications.

Made of stiff low-carbon steel to deflect less under load, these H-bars are commonly used in machine bases, construction, platforms, and frames.

Ready for turning in a lathe, these rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance.

The lead additive acts as a lubricant, which allows 12L14 carbon steel to withstand very fast machining. It's used to fabricate a wide variety of machine parts.

These rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, so they're all set for turning applications in your lathe.

A lead-free alternative to 12L14, 1215 carbon steel contains the same amount of sulfur and phosphorus for excellent machinability. It is often used for shaft couplings, studs, and pins.

The same steel used in automobile bodies, this AHSS (advanced high-strength steel) allows you to fabricate high-strength parts using thinner material than you could with other types of steel. It is formable, weldable, and more economical than alloy steel.

This wire is coated with oil for corrosion resistance and lubricity. Use it for bundling and as tag wire.

Always have the right size wire on hand with a 72-piece assortment.

These sheets have a softened temper, which is also known as annealed, so they can be easily formed into shape and then heat treated for spring properties.

Use these general purpose shafts with bearings, sprockets, and gears to transmit rotary motion.

Combine with a machine key to transmit torque to gears, sprockets, and other power transmission components.

These shafts have keyways only on the ends, leaving a plain shaft in the center. Use the keyways with machine keys to transmit torque to gears, sprockets, and other keyed components. Use the middle of the shaft with bearings and other round-bore components.

Connect these internally threaded shafts directly to threaded components, or use a fastener to secure. They have a flat surface area that allows set screws to dig into the shaft for securely mounting gears, sprockets, and bearings.

Connect these internally threaded shafts directly to threaded components, or use a fastener to secure.

Thread these shafts into a tapped hole to support idler sprockets and pulleys in tensioning applications. They have a retaining-ring groove, retaining ring, and spacers to position your component and hold it in place.

Clip retaining rings into the grooves to separate and position gears, sprockets, and bearings.

Combine these general purpose shafts with a linear bearing and shaft support to create a basic linear motion system.

Internal threads allow you to mount these shafts onto threaded studs and fasteners, no shaft supports needed.

Keep a material certificate on hand for compliance and quality assurance needs. Certificates include a traceable lot number and material test report. These hollow shafts reduce system weight and allow you to run various media such as electrical wiring, compressed air tubing, coolants, or lubricants through the center.

A shoulder near the end of the shaft allows for easy positioning of housings, shaft supports, and collars.

Replace worn shafts in two-piece support-rail shaft systems, or mate with a support rail to create your own. The tapped mounting holes match those on our Support Rails.

Found in hand-powered clamps, vises, grates, doors, and work tables, lead screws and nuts have broad, square threads that are well suited for quick assembly, high clamping forces, and lifting and lowering heavy objects.

Also known as single-start and self-locking lead screws and nuts, these have a single thread that runs the length of the screw. The nut travels only when the screw turns, so your system won't unexpectedly move when the lead screw is at rest.

Also known as trapezoidal-thread lead screws and nuts.

Internal ball bearings provide smooth low-friction travel in applications that require high speeds, accurate positioning, and repeatable movement. Also known as single-start metric ball screws and nuts, these have a single thread that runs the length of the screw.

Keep your ball screw spinning without the ball nut damaging your system. When the ball nut reaches the stop pin at either end of the ball screw, it disengages and begins to idle.

Mount these two-piece collars anywhere on an Acme lead screw without removing components.

A crisscross thread pattern allows you to drive the nut back and forth without changing the lead screw's direction of rotation. When the nut reaches one end of the lead screw, it changes direction and travels back to the other end.

Also known as rod‐end bearings, ball joint rod ends have an eyelet and a ball that swivels to support angular misalignment.

A PTFE-embedded insert or PTFE liner reduces wear, handles shock loads, and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Connect your grease gun to the fitting to lubricate. Internal threads mate with rod end bolts, threaded rods, and other components with male threads.

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant throughout the life of these internally threaded rod ends.

These internally threaded rod ends have an oil-embedded bronze insert that slowly releases lubricant over time. Connect your grease gun to the fitting to relubricate.

Made to extremely tight tolerances, these externally threaded rod ends are for applications that require positioning accuracy, such as accelerators and other types of control linkages.

These externally threaded steel rod ends handle loads that are at least 25% higher than other comparably sized rod ends.

These internally threaded rod ends have an innovative body design that keeps the ball from being pushed out when supporting thrust loads.

A double row of precision ball bearings allows high speeds and smooth operation.

Designed for use with right-hand, internally threaded rod ends, these rods have right-hand threads on both ends. Use them for remote valve operators, throttle controllers, shifting mechanisms, and virtually any push/pull assembly.

Similar to turnbuckles, these rods have right-hand threads on one end and left-hand threads on the other so you can make a linkage that adjusts for tension. Add right- and left-hand threaded rod ends to build your linkages.

Good for general purpose applications where corrosion and high strength aren’t a concern, these rod end bolts are made of carbon steel.

Also known as swing bolts and eyebolts, these internally threaded rod end bolts have no moving parts. They're designed to make pivoting or hinge movements in applications that don't need to compensate for misalignment.

Good for general purpose applications where corrosion and high strength aren’t a concern, these rod end bolts are made of carbon steel.

These steel rod ends are machined to SAE standards.

Make quick adjustments to these rod ends by inserting and releasing the clevis pins without the need to bend them into place.

These linkages offer excellent wear resistance. They consist of internally threaded ball joint rod ends with a ball stud attached to simplify mounting.

These internally threaded linkages have an oil-embedded bronze insert that slowly releases lubricant throughout the life of the joint.

Along with excellent wear resistance, these linkages have a grease fitting for easy lubrication. An internally threaded rod end connects to threaded rods, studs, and other parts with male threads.

These ball joint linkages are made of steel.

Use these linkages to create inline pivoting connections. They have internal threads on one end and external threads on the other.
