Tight-Tolerance Multipurpose 4140 Alloy Steel Rods
 |
Ready for turning in your lathe, these rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance. Also known as chrome-moly steel, this versatile 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. For added wear resistance, you can surface harden these rods with heat treating.
Note: Rods may be made from either 4140 or 4142 alloy steel. They are interchangeable in most applications.

Tight-Tolerance Oil-Hardening O1 Tool Steel Rods
|
Ready for turning in a lathe, these rods are precision ground to a tight diameter tolerance. They’re also known as drill rod. Often used for dies, punches, and gauges, O1 tool steel is an oil-hardening material that resists wear and abrasion. It can also be surface hardened with heat treating for added wear resistance.

Tight-Tolerance Air-Hardening A2 Tool Steel Rods
|
Precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, these rods are ready for turning in your lathe. Also known as drill rod, this A2 tool steel is more wear resistant than O1 and keeps a sharper cutting edge. It’s air-hardening, so it doesn’t require baths or quenching after heat treatment. This tool steel is often used for punches, blades, and hammers.
