Raw Materials

Steel

Strong, machinable, and weldable—all with material certificates for traceability

Power Transmission

Connecting Rods

Connecting Rods

Use with rod ends and swivel joints to link components in push/pull assemblies

U-Joints

Transfer torque between shafts at an angle; handle more torque and misalignment than flexible shafts

Shaft Couplings

Shaft Couplings

Connect two shafts to transfer rotary motion from one to the other

Shear Couplings

Shear Couplings

Sever the connection between shafts when there's too much torque to protect parts from breaking

Rod Alignment Couplers

Rod Alignment Couplers

Reduce wear on bearings and seals by flexing when the cylinder and load aren't precisely even

Measuring and Inspecting

Lathe Alignment Bars

Lathe Alignment Bars

Confirm that your lathe headstock and tailstock are aligned for accurate machining

Alignment Pins

Line up holes in sheet metal, I-beams, and angle irons for bolting, riveting, and welding

Leveling Rods

Use with sight levels to estimate the distance between you and a given object

Pipe Flange Aligners

Pipe Flange Aligners

Line up flange holes so they bolt securely and connections won’t leak

Shaft Alignment Kits

Shaft Alignment Kits

Confirm that shafts are aligned or measure the degree of their misalignment

Variance Indicators

Variance Indicators

Identify small dimensional differences when checking part quality and alignment

Threaded Hole Location Gauges

Threaded Hole Location Gauges

Pinpoint the true center of threaded holes to precisely align and measure parts

Material Handling

Railway Track Aligners

Railway Track Aligners

Push or pull rails to correct spacing after a derailment and when installing gauge tie rods

Fabricating and Machining

Pry Bars

Slide under heavy objects to pry, lift, and position them

Pry Lever Bars

Lift large loads onto a dolly; also known as Johnson bars

Fastening and Joining

Captive Pins

Press into holes in thin materials like panels and circuit boards to permanently join or align them

Fluid Handling

Pipe and Pipe Fittings

Pipe and Pipe Fittings

Generally thicker and more rigid than tubing for distributing liquids and gases through your facility
