How can we improve?

3,238 Products

Raw Materials

Fabric

Use to cover, clean, and insulate objects

Carbon Fiber

The strongest composite we offer; comparable in strength to 6061 aluminum but lighter in weight

Garolite

A strong, machinable alternative to metal and plastic widely used in circuit boards and gears

Fiberglass

A lightweight alternative to metal and wood widely used in electrical and structural applications

Hard Fiber

Chemically treated to be hard and dense, this is the easiest composite to machine in our offering

Kevlar

Super tough for protection against prolonged wear and abrasion

Wood

Commonly used to build ramps, crates, and prototypes or to make repairs

Aluminum

Lightweight, easy to machine, and corrosion resistant—all with material certificates for traceability

Ceramic

Hard and wear resistant, it also withstands corrosion and high temperatures

Graphite

Compressible or conductive for making high-temperature seals, furnace parts, and crucibles

Additives and Fillers

Additives and Fillers

Mix into coatings, resins, polymers, and metal to boost strength, conductivity, and lubricity

Plastic

A lightweight alternative to metal and glass

Aramid

Strong, lightweight, and an excellent thermal insulator; also known as Nomex

Carbon

An electrical conductor that’s often used in electronics and sensors

Building and Machinery Hardware

Edge Trim

Install on panels, boards, signs, and mirrors to protect edges from impact

Fastening and Joining

Threaded Rods

Anchor, connect, or hang components in a wide variety of applications

Electrical
