High-Performance Metals for Barstow’s Industrial Needs
We maintain an extensive inventory of metals engineered to perform in demanding environments—helping your business stay efficient and resilient in the face of operational challenges.
Carbon Steel – Dependable for a Broad Range of Applications
Carbon steel continues to be a top choice for its balance of strength, machinability, and affordability.
- Low-Carbon Steel: Best for structural framing and weldable parts.
- Medium-Carbon Steel: Ideal for axles, gear blanks, and wear components.
- High-Carbon Steel: Used for hard-edged tools, blades, and spring-loaded systems.
Alloy Steel – Built for Strength and Resistance
Alloy steel is formulated to offer added strength, resistance to fatigue, and thermal stability under pressure.
- Low-Alloy Steel: Used in support arms, brackets, and drive systems.
- High-Alloy Steel: Preferred in aerospace and high-performance vehicle parts.
Stainless Steel – Corrosion Resistance That Lasts
For systems exposed to water, chemicals, or temperature shifts, stainless steel provides long-term protection and performance.
- 304 / 316 Austenitic Grades: Used in tanks, pipelines, and food-handling equipment.
- Ferritic and Martensitic Grades: Employed in machine tools and heat-exposed components.
- Duplex Stainless: A high-strength option for offshore rigs, marine assemblies, and chemical process equipment.
Aluminum – Lightweight Metal for Efficiency
Aluminum’s strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to corrosion make it valuable in transport equipment, structural enclosures, and energy systems.
- 6061-T6 Aluminum: A top performer in trailer builds, framing, and solar rack components.
Tool Steel – Made for Precision and Longevity
Tool steel is engineered to maintain hardness, form, and surface integrity under impact and repetition.
- Common in cutting dies, forming tools, punches, and manufacturing molds.
TG&P Steel Bars – Ideal for Rotational and Motion Components
TG&P (Turned, Ground, and Polished) bars are designed for applications that require minimal surface variation and precise diameter tolerances.
- Used in high-speed shafts, actuators, and hydraulic rods.
- 4140 TG&P is a preferred material for its fatigue resistance and surface smoothness.
Bronze – Optimal for High-Friction and Marine Use
Bronze provides low-friction performance and corrosion resistance in moving parts and water-exposed systems.
- Common in bushings, bearings, and marine hardware.
Forging-Ready Materials – Formed to Perform Under Load
We stock metals ideal for forging, including carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel, suited for shaping into parts that carry loads or absorb stress.
- Used in rings, hubs, yokes, and couplings for transportation, mining, and construction equipment.
