How can we improve?

14,447 Products

Raw Materials

Plastic

A lightweight alternative to metal and glass

Garolite

A strong, machinable alternative to metal and plastic widely used in circuit boards and gears

Rubber

Compresses and bounces back to shape; often used for sealing, cushioning, and shock absorbing

Fiberglass

A lightweight alternative to metal and wood widely used in electrical and structural applications

Carbon Fiber

The strongest composite we offer; comparable in strength to 6061 aluminum but lighter in weight

Foam

Pockets of air make it lighter in weight than rubber; good for packing, insulating, and sealing

Hard Fiber

Chemically treated to be hard and dense, this is the easiest composite to machine in our offering

Kevlar

Super tough for protection against prolonged wear and abrasion

Wood

Commonly used to build ramps, crates, and prototypes or to make repairs

Felt

Thicker and more absorbent than fabric for insulating, polishing, cushioning, and gasketing

Sealing

Backer Rods

Insert into gaps before caulking to reduce how much sealant you need and improve adhesion

Backer Rod Insertion Tools

Backer Rod Insertion Tools

Quickly set foam backer rods in caulk joints at a consistent depth without puncturing them

Fastening and Joining

Threaded Rods

Anchor, connect, or hang components in a wide variety of applications

Machine Key Stock

Machine Key Stock

Cut a custom length to transfer torque from shafts to components such as gears and sprockets

Power Transmission

Lead Screws and Nuts

Lead Screws and Nuts

Components travel along a screw with broad, square threads to clamp and lift heavy loads

Fluid Handling

Tube and Tube Fittings

Tube and Tube Fittings

Typically more flexible than pipe for carrying liquids and gases in short runs around equipment

Sintered Filters

Sintered Filters

Tiny holes let particles such as air, gas, and vapor pass through while trapping contaminants

Building and Machinery Hardware

Slip-On Framing and Fittings
