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

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.

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 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.

Ready for turning in a lathe, these rods are precision ground to a tight diameter tolerance.

Precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, these rods are ready for turning in your lathe.

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

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.

A flat surface area allows set screws to dig into the shaft for securely mounting gears, sprockets, and bearings.

A shoulder near the end of the shaft provides a stop for gears, sprockets, and bearings.

Mount these externally threaded shafts into tapped holes rather than using a shaft support, or attach a hex nut, shaft collar, or other threaded accessory.

Lighter than solid shafts, hollow shafts reduce your total 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.

Class 12.9 rods are about 20% stronger than Class 10.9 threaded rods and are for use in heavy machinery.

About half the strength of medium-strength steel threaded rods, use these metric fine-thread rods for light duty hanging, mounting, and fastening.

These metric Grade B7 threaded rods meet the pressure and temperature requirements of ASTM A193 and are often used to secure pressure tanks, valves, and flanges.

An economical alternative to Grade B7 and Grade B16 threaded rods, these metric Class 8.8 rods are suitable for fastening most machinery and equipment.

These steel studs are zinc plated to resist corrosion in wet environments.

Screw the threaded end of these metric studs into a tapped hole and use the unthreaded end as a pivot point, hinge, shaft, or locator pin.

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.

Multiple thread channels (also known as thread starts) create faster linear travel than lead screws with a single thread start.

Designed for use with right-hand, externally 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.
