Widely used for fabricating fittings and fasteners, 303 stainless steel machines quickly without sticking to cutting tools.

Each piece is precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 17-4 PH stainless steel.

Hardened for superior wear resistance, these rods are precision ground to a tight diameter tolerance so they’re ready for turning in a lathe.

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

Often called Stressproof, these rods are stress-relieved to minimize warping during machining.

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

The chrome plating on these rods increases corrosion resistance.

Also known as chrome-moly steel, this versatile 4140 alloy steel is used for a wide range of parts, such as gears, axles, shafts, collets, and die holders. It resists fracturing from repeated stress.

These rods and discs are precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 6061 rods and discs.

Precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, these rods are ready for turning in your lathe.

With the highest lead content of all the brass alloys, 360 offers the best machinability. Often called free-machining and free-cutting brass, it stands up to high-speed drilling, milling, and tapping operations with minimal wear on your tools. It’s commonly used for gears, pinions, and lock components.

Mount these externally threaded shafts into tapped holes rather than using a shaft support, or attach a hex nut, shaft collar, or other threaded accessory.

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.

Combine with a machine key to transmit torque to gears, sprockets, and other power transmission components.

Connect these internally threaded shafts directly to threaded components, or use a fastener to secure.

A shoulder near the end of the shaft provides a stop for gears, sprockets, and bearings.
