These rods are zinc galvanized for good corrosion resistance.

Also known as mild steel, low-carbon steel is easy to machine, form, and weld. It's widely fabricated into parts that don’t require high strength.

These hex bars are hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. They are also stress relieved to reduce the chance of warping during machining.

Easier to machine than 52100 alloy steel rods, these extremely hard and wear-resistant tubes are often used to create bearings, bushings, and other cylindrical parts that are under constant stress. They’re also known as chrome steel.

A modified version of 4340 alloy steel, 300M is used in applications that require high yield strength, such as torsion bars and drive shafts.

A vacuum arc remelting (VAR) casting process gives 9310 superior strength, hardness, and fatigue resistance over other types of alloy steel. It's often machined into heavy duty gears, clutch parts, and ratchets.

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

With a higher chromium content than 15-5 PH stainless steel, this high-strength 17-4 PH offers better corrosion resistance. It is also known as 630 stainless steel.

13-8 PH stainless steel can be hardened at lower temperatures than other heat-treatable types of stainless steel. It is widely used for fittings, pins, and lock washers.

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.

Often used for fasteners and valves, 410 stainless steel withstands wear caused by abrasion.

Ready for turning in a lathe, these precision-ground rods have a tight diameter tolerance and are held to a strict straightness tolerance.

Made from powdered metal, M4 tool steel has a consistent microstructure that gives it outstanding resistance to wear and abrasion. It is comparable to CPM Rex M4.

An oversized diameter allows for finishing to your exact requirements.

An oversized diameter allows for finishing to your exact requirements.

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

Furnished hardened, P20 tool steel is strong and easy to machine. It has the wear resistance and highly polishable surface needed to fabricate long-lasting molds and dies.

The diameter on these rods is precision ground while the straightness is held to a strict tolerance, so they're ready for turning in a lathe.

Resistant to wear, abrasion, and chipping, A11 is a hard material that is often made into punches and stamping tools.
