These sheets and bars are zinc galvanized for good corrosion resistance.

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

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 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.

These rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, so they're all set for turning applications in your lathe.

With more carbon and manganese than other easy-to-machine carbon steel, 1144 carbon steel has higher yield strength and hardness. Also known as Stressproof, these hex bars are stress-relieved to minimize warping during machining.

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

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.

Stronger than low-carbon steel with equally good machinability, 1045 carbon steel is widely used for bolts, studs, and shafts.

Choose 1141 carbon steel for its balance of strength and machinability. Often compared to low-carbon steel, 1141 is higher strength. It’s not as machinable as similar alloys, like 1144, due to its low sulfur content.
