Tight-Tolerance Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel Rods
 |
Precision ground and held to strict straightness tolerances, these 304 stainless steel rods are made for accurate turning and machining. They’re used to create precise cylindrical parts that hold up to water and chemicals, such as guide rods in automated laboratory equipment. Made from the most common stainless steel, these rods can be used in a wide range of applications. They maintain their corrosion resistance in temperatures up to 1500° F.
