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

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

This material has tighter tolerances than standard 304 stainless steel.

This material is precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 316 stainless steel.

Each piece is precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 17-4 PH stainless steel.

Hardened for superior wear resistance, these rods are precision ground to a tight diameter tolerance so they’re ready for turning in a lathe.

With a diameter that’s held to a close tolerance, this material is hardened for increased wear and abrasion resistance.

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.

Also known as cobalt steel, this M42 tool steel maintains its hardness in high-speed cutting applications that generate intense heat. Use it to make tools for cutting extremely hard materials.

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

All set for turning in your lathe, these precision-ground rods are held to a strict straightness tolerance.

These rods and discs are precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 6061 rods and discs.

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

The diameter of these rods is held to a ±0.0002" tolerance.

Combine these general purpose shafts with a linear bearing and shaft support to create a basic linear motion system.

Mount these externally threaded shafts into tapped holes rather than using a shaft support, or attach a hex nut, shaft collar, or other threaded accessory.

Keep a material certificate on hand for compliance and quality assurance needs. Certificates include a traceable lot number and material test report. These hollow shafts reduce system weight and allow you to run various media such as electrical wiring, compressed air tubing, coolants, or lubricants through the center.

For a snug fit with a linear bearing in high-precision applications, these shafts are turned, ground, and polished to tight diameter and straightness tolerances.

These shafts include a support rail for a stable setup that eliminates bending and prevents linear bearings from rotating.
