Fiberglass

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

Garolite

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

Tungsten

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

Titanium

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

Carbon Fiber

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

Ceramic

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

Bronze

Better wear resistance than copper and brass—all with material certificates for traceability

Graphite

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

Hard Fiber

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

Wood

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

Foam

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

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

Power Transmission

Rotary Shafts

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

Linear Shafts

Pair with linear bearings to reduce friction in manual and automated systems

Fluid Handling

Mixer Shafts

Replace the shaft on mixers

Building and Machinery Hardware

Multipoint Latch Conversion Kits

Multipoint Latch Conversion Kits

Turn your single-point lock or latch into a system that fastens doors at multiple points
