Hardened Undersized High-Speed M2 Tool Steel Rods
- Yield Strength: See table
- Hardness: Rockwell C60 (Very Hard)
These rods, also known as drill blanks, have an undersized diameter for machining your own drill bits. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.

| 0.036" | -0.0002" to 0" | 64 | 1 1/2" | Not Rated | Precision Ground | 0.012" per ft. | 00000000 | 00000 |
Hardened Oversized High-Speed M2 Tool Steel Rods
- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Rockwell C60 (Very Hard)
Also known as reamer blanks, these rods have an oversized diameter that allows for finishing to your exact requirements. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.

Bend-and-Stay Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel Wire
Bend this wire and it will stay in place. It's widely used as tying and locking wire. Made of 316/316L stainless steel, it has less carbon than standard 316 for better weldability. The addition of molybdenum gives this material excellent corrosion resistance. Use it in a variety of marine and chemical-processing applications.
