How can we improve?

615 Products

Raw Materials

Stainless Steel

Stainless Steel

Resists corrosion and chemicals in most environments—all with material certificates for traceability

Steel

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

Plastic

A lightweight alternative to metal and glass

Aluminum

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

Copper

Our most conductive metal for electrical applications—all with material certificates for traceability

Tungsten

Our densest metal resists wear and heat to make end mills, heat shields, electrodes, and more

Carbon Fiber

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

Brass

More machinable than copper and bronze—all with material certificates for traceability

Fiberglass

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

Titanium

The most corrosion-resistant metal we offer—all with material certificates for traceability

Garolite

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

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

Rubber

Compresses and bounces back to shape; often used for sealing, cushioning, and shock absorbing

Nickel

An upgrade from stainless steel to withstand harsh chemicals and acids—all with material certificates for traceability

Foam

Pockets of air make it lighter in weight than rubber; good for packing, insulating, and sealing

Molybdenum

Retains its shape and strength in extreme temperatures—all with material certificates for traceability

Wood

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

Niobium

Conductive and corrosion resistant even at extreme temperatures—all with material certificates for traceability

Felt

Thicker and more absorbent than fabric for insulating, polishing, cushioning, and gasketing

Fastening and Joining

Dowel Pins

Align parts before assembly or use as a pivot, shaft, or hinge to join moving components

Dowel Pin Stock

Dowel Pin Stock

Cut to the length you need for positioning and holding parts in place

Stick Electrodes

Stick Electrodes

Flux coated for stability and speed when welding most metals

TIG Welding Rods

TIG Welding Rods

Add extra metal while TIG welding to help flatten welds and hold workpieces together

Tungsten Electrodes

Tungsten Electrodes

Heat in TIG torches to create welds

Hot Air Welding Rods

Hot Air Welding Rods

Melt with heat from a welder to create joints between pieces of plastic

Gas Welding Rods

Gas Welding Rods

Melt in extra metal while gas welding to help workpieces hold together

Brazing Alloys

Form stronger bonds between metal parts than solder without melting the base material

Power Transmission

Linear Shafts

Pair with linear bearings and shaft supports to create smooth, precise motion

Rotary Shafts

Pair with gears, sprockets, and bearings to transmit rotary motion
