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.

1117 carbon steel responds to surface-hardening heat treatment better than other easy-to-machine carbon steels. Use it to fabricate shaft couplings, studs, pins, and universal joints.

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

The chrome plating on these rods increases corrosion resistance.

Often called ETD-150, these rods are made from a modified version of 4140 alloy steel and have been drawn at high temperatures for excellent strength.

4130 alloy steel has a low carbon content that provides good weldability. It's often used for gears, fasteners, and structural applications.

All come with a traceable lot number and test report.

A modified version of 4340 alloy steel, 300M is used in applications that require high yield strength, such as torsion bars and drive shafts.

The addition of lead gives 41L40 the best machinability of all the alloy steel we offer.

Also known as chrome steel, 52100 is an extremely hard and wear-resistant material. It’s used for parts such as bearings, bushings, and punches.

Ductile cast iron is strong, resilient, and able to handle repeated stress without breaking.

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.

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

This material has tighter tolerances than standard 304 stainless steel.

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

Widely used for fabricating fittings and fasteners, 303 stainless steel machines quickly without sticking to cutting tools.

In addition to having tight tolerances, this material comes with a traceable lot number and test report.

Offering outstanding resistance to surface wear and corrosion, Nitronic 60 stainless steel is often used for shafts, fasteners, and valves.

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

All come with a traceable lot number and test report.

These rods have been passivated for enhanced corrosion resistance.

Stronger and more corrosion resistant than 316 stainless steel, Nitronic 50 is especially well-suited for use as shafts and fixtures in marine environments.

This material is hardened for improved strength and wear resistance.

Hardened for improved strength and wear resistance, these rods are precision ground to a strict diameter tolerance. Use them for turning applications in your lathe.

Furnished with a traceable lot number and test report, these rods are hardened for improved strength and wear resistance. They are precision-ground and held to a strict diameter tolerance, so they’re all set for turning in your lathe.

All come with a traceable lot number and test report.

Widely used to fabricate fasteners and engine components, A286 will maintain its strength as temperatures rise.

One of the most machinable types of stainless steel available, 416 contains sulfur for fast machining without clogging cutting tools. It's used for gears, screws, and shafts.

Precision ground to a tight diameter tolerance, these rods are all set for turning applications in a lathe.

Furnished with a traceable lot number and test report, these precision-ground rods are ready for turning applications in a lathe.

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

The titanium content of 321 stainless steel preserves corrosion resistance around weld points.

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.

These rods come with a traceable lot number and test report.

The matte plating on these rods, sometimes called industrial chrome and hard chrome, creates a slippery surface that minimizes galling and prevents parts from seizing.

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.

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