Raw Stock

 (13 product groups)

We carry a broad selection of raw stock in the form of rods, bars, key stock, and flat stock. Materials include aluminum, brass, bronze, steel, stainless steel, and urethane. Our oil-hardening flat stock is a general-purpose tool steel with good wear resistance, durability, and machinability. Due to high wear and abrasion resistance, our air-hardening flat stock is ideal for punches and dies to stamp silicon, stainless steel, monel metals, and other abrasive material. Types of drill rods include fine-threaded, coarse-threaded, and non-threaded. Our raw stock materials are available in a variety of lengths, widths, thicknesses, and diameters. We also supply an assortment of Woodruff keys and tungsten carbide balls.

Brass Rods

In stock Click here for lead time.

CA360 Rods: This cold finished, nonferrous alloy 360 is a versatile, free cutting, 1/2 hard brass and is the standard of machinability (rated 100%) against which all nonferrous alloys are rated. It's an ideal metal for shop use where milling, drilling, tapping, knurling or turning is required. Brass is a corrosion resistant, rustproof metal that finishes well and is easily plated, soldered and brazed. Typical applications include nuts, bolts, rivets, valve stems, pump shafts and marine hardware. Conforms to ASTM B16. Length tolerances are +/-1/2 in.SAE 841 Rods: These oil-filled, powdered metal, bronze bars are produced to ASTM standards for consistent precision, quality and uniformity. Bars are vacuum impregnated with non-detergent SAE 30 oil to provide excellent lubrication while being corrosion resistant. The O.D. is oversized and the I.D. is undersized to allow for finishing to listed dimensions. Application temperature range is 10 to 220 degrees Fahrenheit.

Bronze Rods

In stock Click here for lead time.

Bronze is an alloy that consists primarily of copper with the addition of other ingredients. In most cases the ingredient added is typically tin, but arsenic, phosphorus, aluminum, manganese, and silicon is also be used to produce different properties in the material. All of these ingredients produce an alloy much harder than copper alone. Bronze is characterized by its dull-gold color, and has faint rings on its surface (which helps one to differentiate it from brass). Bronze bars are used in the construction of sculptures, musical instruments and medals, and in industrial applications such as bushings and bearings, where its low metal on metal friction is an advantage. Bronze also has nautical applications because of its resistance to corrosion. Other applications include bearings and bushings, pump impellers, valve components, wire brushes, chemical hardware, gears, and pipe fittings.

Stainless Steel Rods

In stock Click here for lead time.

Type 303 is highly corrosion resistant and non-magnetic. It has non-galling and non-seizing qualities which allow for easy machining and is better for lighter equipment if welding is not required. When cold worked, can become slightly magnetic. Free machining for heavier cuts in automatic machining operations. Corrosion resistant to atmospheric exposures, sterilizing solutions, most organic and many inorganic chemicals, most dyes, nitric acid and foods. Machinability is 70% (1212 crs = 100% and 1018 crs = 78%). Length tolerances are +/-1 in.Type 316 is the best corrosion resistance of the standard stainless steels. Resists pitting and most chemicals used in paper, textile and photographic industries. High temperature strength. Non magnetic. Length tolerances are +/-1 in.

Steel Flat Stock

In stock Click here for lead time.

Made of dimensionally stable chromium, tungsten and vanadium electric furnace tool steel. Low 1,450-1,500 Fahrenheit hardening range makes this steel easy to harden. Vanadium content assures fine grain and high durability. Fully spheroidized and annealed for uniform carbide size and easy machining. Each piece is individually wrapped and clearly marked with size, analysis and correct hardness and tempering information. Edge squareness is .003″ per inch. Finish is 35 microinch or finer.

Woodruff Keys

In stock Click here for lead time.

Woodruff keys are shaped like a half circle and used to lock gears and pulleys to the drive shafts of machine tools and engines. The round edge of the key is designed to fit into the keyseat, which is a curved pocket on the shaft. The flat edge of the key remains exposed and fits into the keyway, which is a rectangular groove in the gear or pulley.
