How can we improve?

32,952 Products

Raw Materials

Aluminum

Lightweight, easy to machine, and corrosion resistant in wet environments

Steel

Strong, machinable, and weldable but lacks corrosion resistance

Plastic

A lightweight alternative to metal and glass

Stainless Steel

Stainless Steel

Resists corrosion and chemicals in most environments

Brass

More machinable than copper and bronze for making nuts, hinges, and locks

Copper

The most conductive of our metals, it excels in all types of electrical applications

Tungsten

Our densest metal resists wear and heat to make end mills, heat shields, electrodes, and more

Titanium

The most corrosion-resistant metal we offer, with very high strength relative to its weight

Bronze

With better wear resistance than copper and brass, it’s used for bearings, gears, and pump parts

Garolite

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

Fabric

Use to cover, clean, and insulate objects

Fiberglass

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

Rubber

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

Foam

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

Mica

An electrical insulator that resists high temperatures; use in circuit breakers and heating elements

Ceramic

Hard and wear resistant, it also withstands corrosion and high temperatures

Wood

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

Glass

Clear and highly heat and chemical resistant; often used in sights, lighting, and lab equipment

Carbon Fiber

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

Wax

Create seals and prototypes, lubricate tools, and polish equipment

Nickel

An upgrade from stainless steel that withstands harsh chemicals and acids at high temperatures

Kevlar

Super tough for protection against prolonged wear and abrasion

Felt

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

Cobalt

Slides against other materials without wearing and sticking; resists impact and rapid temperature changes

Lead

A dense insulator often used to shield against radiation and absorb sound and vibration

Graphite

Compressible or conductive for making high-temperature seals, furnace parts, and crucibles

Aramid

Strong, lightweight, and an excellent thermal insulator; also known as Nomex

Leather

Durable and long lasting; often used for belting, lacing, and sealing applications

Carbon

An electrical conductor that’s often used in electronics and sensors

Hard Fiber

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

Tin

Soft and malleable for forming gaskets and filters; also mixes with other metals to make solder

Niobium

Conductive, corrosion resistant, and strong, even at extremely high and low temperatures

Zinc

Draws corrosion away from nearby metal; an alternative to lead for sound barriers and vibration dampers

Fastening and Joining

Shim Stock

Cut into custom shapes for leveling and aligning fasteners, machinery components, and more

Shims

Level, align, and adjust spacing on fasteners, shafts, and machine components

Solder

Join pieces of metal without melting the base material

Fluid Handling

Perforated Sheets

Perforated Sheets

Filter, sort, separate, and strain liquid or dry material

Filter Mesh

Strain particles out of various substances

Communication

Message Plates

Fasten to doors, walls, and plate holders to identify locations and objects

Tags

Hang throughout facilities to convey information

Legend Plates

Mark switches and lights on control panels for easy identification

Signs

Everything from accident prevention to traffic control to exit signs

Fabricating and Machining

Prototyping Foam

Prototyping Foam

Carve, mill, or sand into lightweight parts for testing

Casting Metals

Melt and pour into molds to make metal parts and prototypes

3D Printer Build Surfaces

3D Printer Build Surfaces

Stick on top of printer beds for more accurate parts than those made on bare beds

Electrical

Thermal Interface Material

Thermal Interface Material

Dissipate heat away from electronic components
