These rods are zinc galvanized for good corrosion resistance.

The lead additive acts as a lubricant, which allows 12L14 carbon steel to withstand very fast machining. It's used to fabricate a wide variety of machine parts.

A lead-free alternative to 12L14, 1215 carbon steel contains the same amount of sulfur and phosphorus for excellent machinability. It is often used for shaft couplings, studs, and pins.

Also known as chrome-moly steel, this versatile 4140 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.

While the low carbon content makes 8620 alloy steel easy-to-weld, it's the nickel, chromium, and molybdenum content that provides wear resistance.

This material has tighter tolerances than standard 304 stainless steel.

Widely used for fabricating fittings and fasteners, 303 stainless steel machines quickly without sticking to cutting tools.

Each piece is precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 17-4 PH stainless steel.

Hardened for improved strength and wear resistance, these rods are precision ground to a strict diameter tolerance. Use them for turning applications in your lathe.

The addition of molybdenum gives 316 stainless steel excellent corrosion resistance. Use it in a variety of marine and chemical-processing applications.

One of the most machinable types of stainless steel available, 416 contains sulfur for fast machining without clogging cutting tools. It's used for gears, screws, and shafts.

Ready for turning in your lathe, these rods are precision ground to a tight tolerance.

Also known as reamer blanks, these rods are hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance.

Also known as cobalt steel, this M42 tool steel maintains its hardness in high-speed cutting applications that generate intense heat. Use it to make tools for cutting extremely hard materials.

Hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance, these precision-ground rods have a tight diameter tolerance and are ready for turning in your lathe.

Hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance, these rods are precision ground with a tight diameter tolerance.

All set for turning in your lathe, these precision-ground rods are held to a strict straightness tolerance.

These rods and discs are precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 6061 rods and discs.

These rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, so they’re ready for turning in a lathe.

Also known as high-leaded naval brass, 485 brass contains lead for good machinability. It is commonly used for marine hardware, valve stems, and screw machine products.

A lead-free alternative to 485 brass, 464 brass offers good weldability, strength, and wear resistance. It’s widely used for marine hardware, pump and propeller shafts, and rivets.

With 99.99% copper content, 101 copper has higher purity than 110 copper, resulting in superior electrical conductivity. It's commonly called OFE and OFHC copper. Use it in electrical applications, such as for coaxial cables and terminal lugs.

Containing lead, 173 beryllium copper is easier to machine than other beryllium copper alloys while still being electrically conductive and non-magnetic.

This tungsten alloy is strong, corrosion resistant, and extremely dense. It’s dense enough to use as a lead alternative to shield from radiation, a vibration dampener in small spaces for equipment such as helicopter blades, and as crankshaft weights.

These titanium rods are the strongest of the commercially pure titanium alloys, Grades 1 through 4, and resist corrosion better than Grade 5 titanium. However, they’re not as strong as Grade 5, and they won’t bend or form as easily as lower grades.

Oversized to fit worn and enlarged holes, these pins work well as repair and replacement parts.

An economical alternative to Delrin® acetal resin, this acetal copolymer offers similar wear resistance.

This nylon 6/6 material is modified with MDS for a self-lubricating surface that’s more slippery than standard nylon. It's often used in high-friction applications, such as gears and bearings.

At only half the weight of glass, polycarbonate maintains excellent impact resistance across a wide temperature range. It's comparable to Lexan, Hyzod, Tuffak, and Makrolon.
