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.

An anodized coating forms a bond with the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.

Also known as American Standard I-Beams, these I-beams have rounded corners.

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. It offers similar performance to 7075 aluminum, but it’s not as strong.

Originally developed for aircraft frames, uses for 7075 aluminum now include a wide range of high-stress parts. It is often used as a replacement for 2024 aluminum because it’s stronger and provides similar performance in all other aspects.

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.

Made of stiff low-carbon steel to deflect less under load, these H-bars are commonly used in machine bases, construction, platforms, and frames.

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

Often called architectural bronze, 385 brass is easy to machine and has excellent formability when heated. It is typically used for handrails, ornamental trim, and hardware, such as hinges and lock bodies.

In addition to a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough material is impact and wear resistant to handle the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastics can’t.

Because PVC resists many acids and alkalies, it’s widely used for tanks and in chemical-processing applications. Also known as PVC Type 1.

Because this polypropylene resists swelling when exposed to water, it’s often fabricated into containers and parts for laboratory equipment.

Known for its naturally slippery surface, PTFE surpasses most plastics when it comes to chemical resistance and performance in extreme temperatures.

At only half the weight of glass, polycarbonate maintains excellent impact resistance across a wide temperature range. It's comparable to Lexan, Hyzod, Tuffak, and Makrolon.

Because PVC resists acids and alkalies, it is often used in tanks and chemical-processing applications where visibility is essential.

Up to two times the height of regular strut channel, this high-profile channel is stronger than regular strut channel.

Slide the strut channel into the tube for telescoping length adjustments.

This welded, one-piece strut channel combines two strut channels side-to-side.

Create posts of varying lengths.

Create strong structures by welding this framing together. Add metal panels to close off openings.

Rails are drilled with consistently spaced holes for multiple mounting options that do not require machining. Use this steel bolt-together framing to build guards, tables, and racks.

Offering excellent arc and track resistance, this GPO3 fiberglass is often used for electrical applications in humid environments.

An alternative to wood in structural applications, FRP fiberglass is strong and lightweight.

An alternative to wood in structural applications, FRP fiberglass is strong and lightweight.

Often used to make railings, edge covers, and other structural framing parts, these carbon fiber U-channels add stiffness and strength to applications without adding a lot of weight.

Machine these angles into arc barriers, switch mounts, and components for circuit breakers and electrical equipment. They resist carrying electric currents in dry or humid areas, even when exposed to sudden electric discharge.
