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.

All come with a traceable lot number and test report.

Also known as chrome steel, E52100 is an extremely hard and wear-resistant material. These balls are often used in bearings.

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.

Offering excellent resistance to cracking from impact and compression, C300 alloy steel is often used for dies and tooling. It is also known as maraging steel and VascoMax.

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.

This hardened M50 tool steel maintains its strength and wear resistance even when temperatures rise. It is widely used for bearings.

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

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

All come with a traceable lot number and test report. These rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, so they're ready for turning in your lathe.

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.

An oversized diameter allows for finishing to your exact requirements.

This S2 tool steel has been hardened for excellent strength and impact resistance. It has a tough core that resists breaking under shock loads.

An oversized diameter allows finishing to your exact requirements.
