All come with a traceable lot number and test report.

Also known as chrome-moly steel, this versatile 4140 alloy steel is used for a wide range of parts, such as axles, shafts, collets, and die holders. It resists fracturing from repeated stress.

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.

Gray cast iron machines faster with less wear on cutting tools than most types of steel. It's often fabricated into gears, pulleys, rollers, and bushings.

Polished to either a brushed or mirror-like finish, this material is often used to fabricate decorative enclosures and industrial workstations.

The textured surface hides fingerprints and dents. This material is widely used in decorative applications, such as partitions and handrails.

With a diameter that’s held to a close tolerance, this material is hardened for increased wear and abrasion resistance.

Polished on the outside to a #8 reflective, mirror-like finish, these tubes have no visible grain lines.

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.

More corrosion resistant and easier to form than multipurpose 6061 aluminum, 6063 is primarily used for exterior railings, decorative trim, and door frames.

The outside of these tubes is anodized to improve wear and corrosion resistance.

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.

These tubes are sized so that each tube fits into the next larger size.

Known for being one of the easiest types of aluminum to weld, 5052 is also recognized for its ability to resist salt water. It's widely used for the bodies of boats, buses, trucks, and trailers, as well as for chemical drums.

Offering the highest yield strength of all our brass, 330 has a low lead content for a good balance of machinability and formability. It's used for fire station poles, pump cylinder lines, and plumbing accessories.

954 bronze contains a minimum of 10% aluminum for strength and weldability. It is also known as aluminum bronze. It's widely used for bearings, bushings, valve bodies, and worm gears. The strength of this material increases with heat treating.

Frequently called manganese brass, 863 bronze can handle heavy loads and high speeds when properly lubricated.

The addition of phosphorus makes 122 copper easier to weld and braze than 110 copper. It has excellent resistance to corrosion caused by water, soil, and weather, making it the go-to material for plumbing and underground applications.

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 good all-around choice, Garolite G-10/FR4 is strong, machinable, and electrically insulating. It meets UL 94V0 for flame retardance.

Stronger than Garolite CE with better electrical-insulating properties, Garolite XX is often fabricated into low-cost electrical components.

The strongest composite we offer, carbon fiber is comparable in strength to 6061 aluminum yet lighter in weight.

Hard fiber is the easiest composite to machine, making it good for creating custom parts. Also known as vulcanized fiber.
