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.

The matte plating on these rods increases corrosion resistance and wear 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 rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, so they're all set for turning applications in your lathe.

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

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.

1117 carbon steel responds to surface-hardening heat treatment better than other easy-to-machine carbon steels. Use it to fabricate shaft couplings, studs, pins, and universal joints.

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.

The chrome plating on these rods increases corrosion resistance.

Often called ETD-150, these rods are made from a modified version of 4140 alloy steel and have been drawn at high temperatures for excellent strength.

4130 alloy steel has a low carbon content that provides good weldability. It's often used for gears, fasteners, and structural applications.

4130 alloy steel has a low carbon content that provides good weldability. It's often used for gears, fasteners, and structural applications.

The diameter on these balls is held to a precise tolerance.

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

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

Often used for gears, shafts, and ball screws, 4150 alloy steel resists wear from friction and abrasion.

Ductile cast iron is strong, resilient, and able to handle repeated stress without breaking.

Precision ground to a tight diameter tolerance, these rods are ready for turning in your lathe.

These rods, also known as drill blanks, have an undersized diameter for machining your own jobbers'-length drill bits.

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

An oversized diameter allows for finishing to your exact requirements.

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.

Precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, these rods are ready for turning in your lathe.

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

Ground and held to strict diameter and straightness tolerances, these rods are ready to be turned in a lathe.

An oversized diameter allows for finishing to your exact requirements.

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.

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.
