Steel Rods for Machinery, Frames & Repairs
Simple yet versatile, a steel rod offers countless uses. From welding to rebar, tool repairs to furniture design, you can use steel rods to support, reinforce and create. Shop Lowe’s for steel rods in a variety of finishes and thicknesses. Choose lengths of up to 10 feet.
Hot rolled steel is suitable for equipment repair and general structural projects and is easier to shape than cold-rolled steel. Use extra strong cold-rolled steel for gears, shafts and anything that requires superior strength and accurate dimensions. It also offers a smoother finish with fewer surface imperfections. Both options are weldable.
Other metal rod options include zinc-plated steel and decorative solid brass. Lightweight and strong, an aluminum rod is 100% recyclable and can be used for screen door frames and trim and tent poles. Also, shop Lowe’s for square key stock bars for machinery or to use for handles and fence repair.
