About Steel

Compare over 50 grades of steel and cast iron to find the right material for you—all with material certificates for traceability.

Multipurpose Formable 1050 Spring Steel Sheets

Containing more carbon than low-carbon steel—but less than 1095 spring steel—1050 spring steel is easily formed into parts such as washers, brackets, and springs before being hardened for use. It resists stress, so it won’t snap when formed or twisted. Because it has a lower carbon content than 1095 spring steel, it’s not as wear resistant.

Certificates with a traceable lot number are available for these products. Download certificates from ORDER HISTORY after your order ships.

Shim Stock

Cut into custom shapes to create shims that suit your needs. With thickness tolerances as fine as a strand of hair, the shims will precisely align, space, and level components on dies, presses, and machinery.

You can stack multiple shims to achieve your exact thickness, but stacking more than four may cause them to shift. Remember, fewer shims are better, so a couple of thicker shims are more stable than a bunch of thin shims.

Stress-Resistant Spring Steel—Harder and holds its shape better than carbon steel. Use it for high-stress applications, such as leveling heavy machinery. It's best for dry areas since moisture will cause it to rust.

Temper Rating—Choose half hard to create shims that you’ll need to bend or shape. Opt for full hard to make stronger shims that will maintain their shape under loads.
