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

These sheets and bars are zinc galvanized for good corrosion resistance.

The galvannealed coating allows these steel sheets to be painted without prepping the surface. They're easier to weld and more scratch resistant than zinc-galvanized steel sheets. Use them for outdoor signs, cabinets, and doors.

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.

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.

The matte plating on these rods increases corrosion resistance and wear resistance.

Also known as mild steel, use these low-carbon steel balls in parts that don't require high strength.

This wire is zinc galvanized for good corrosion resistance.

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.

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.

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

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.

Stronger than low-carbon steel with equally good machinability, 1045 carbon steel is widely used for bolts, studs, and shafts.

This UHSS (ultra 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.

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.

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

Keep shim stock in a variety of thicknesses on hand with these sets. Cut into custom shapes to fit your application.

Use these round shims as they are, or punch out the middle to create the ID you need.

Also known as offset key stock, use step keys to repair keyways in gears and shafts.

Cut this stock to length to create the machine key you need. Straight keys, with a square or rectangular cross section, are the most common type of key. Install in a keyway to transmit torque from shafts to gears and other components.

Straight keys, with a square or rectangular cross section, are the most common type of key. Install them in keyways to transmit torque from shafts to gears and other components.

Thread a screw through the tapped hole to pop these keys out of a keyway. When installed, they fill oval keyways completely, reducing stress on the key and shaft. The rounded ends make it easy to slide gears, hubs, and other components into place.

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.

For your compliance and quality assurance needs, these shafts come with a material certificate with a traceable lot number.

With 2" of each end softened, it's easier to machine a custom end for mounting. The rest of the shaft is case-hardened, which increases hardness and wear resistance on the surface of the shaft while allowing the center to remain soft for absorbing stresses caused by shifting loads.

These shafts include a support rail for a stable setup that eliminates bending and prevents linear bearings from rotating.

Eight times straighter than standard rotary shafts, these tight-tolerance shafts minimize vibrations and reduce wear to bearings and other components. They also have diameter tolerances that are twice as tight as standard rotary shafts.

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.

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

Good for hydraulic systems, machine tools, and other high-torque applications, these shafts have teeth that transmit high rotational loads.

Mount the flange to a machine or wall to support idler sprockets and pulleys in tensioning applications. They include washers and a nut to position your component and hold it in place.

Attach threaded accessories, such as mixer propellers and fan blades, to the end of these shafts.

Create posts of varying lengths.

Reduce the chance your concrete will crack from expansion and contraction and other tensile stresses.

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.

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

A set of ball bearings reduces friction and secures the end of a metric ball or lead screw.
