518 Products

Stainless Steel

Hardened Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel

Harder than our other 304 stainless steel, these thin sheets offer better wear resistance for use as a wrap, liner, or cover.

Polished Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel

Polished to either a brushed or mirror-like finish, this material is often used to fabricate decorative enclosures and industrial workstations.

Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel

From cookware to chemical-processing equipment, 304 stainless steel is a good all-around choice for a wide range of applications.

Fatigue-Resistant 301 Stainless Steel

Able to withstand repeated stress and wear, 301 stainless steel has the strength required for applications such as springs and fasteners.

Economical 430 Stainless Steel

Use 430 stainless steel in decorative and light structural applications, rather than outdoors or in extreme temperatures.

High-Temperature 309/310 Stainless Steel

309/310 stainless steel has high levels of chromium and nickel to provide good corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures. It's often used in heat exchangers and furnaces.

Weldable 321 Stainless Steel

The titanium content of 321 stainless steel preserves corrosion resistance around weld points.

Hardened Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel

Because these thin sheets are harder than our other 316 stainless steel, they offer better wear resistance. Use them as a wrap, liner, or cover.

Impact-Resistant 440A Stainless Steel

440A stainless steel resists damage from impact and abrasion. It's often used for cutlery and valve components.

Hardened Very-Wear-Resistant 420 Stainless Steel

This material is hardened for increased wear resistance over standard 420 stainless steel.

High-Strength 17-4 PH Stainless Steel

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.

Fastening and Joining

Shim Stock

Cut this stock into custom shapes to fit your application.

Shim Stock Sets

Keep shim stock in a variety of thicknesses on hand with these sets. Cut into custom shapes to fit your application.

Adhesive-Back Shim Stock

A durable acrylic adhesive keeps this shim stock from sliding out of place. Cut it into custom shapes to fit your application.

Peel-Away Layered Shim Stock

Cut this shim stock into custom shapes to fit your application. Stock is made of layers of material bonded with adhesive; remove layers with a utility knife until you get the thickness you need.

Shim Stock Assortments

Create a custom shim to fit your application.

Stainless Steel Foil Tape

Made from stainless steel, this noncorrosive, nonstaining, and nonmagnetic tape bonds to metal. Patch scratched coatings and finishes to prevent corrosion in marine, food-processing, and nuclear applications.
