Plain Tubing (Product Page)
Aluminum tubing is one of the base components of our favorite style of robot construction. Tubing tends to be stronger and stiffer than plate construction due to its shape while still being lightweight because of its hollow profile. We offer:
2"x1" rectangular tubing, 1/16” and ⅛” wall
1"x1" / 1.5"x1.5" / 2"x2" square tubing, 1/16” and ⅛” wall

Plastics (Product Page)
Polycarbonate is a great solution for making simple brackets and sponsor panels. These 0.5mm and 1.5mm thick sheets of smoked polycarbonate will come in 3’ x 6’ sheets. The 1.5mm thick sheets are great for thinner brackets and the 0.5mm thick sheets are great for sponsor panels and can even be cut with a pair of scissors.
Shaft Stock (Product Page)
WCP offers several different lightweight shaft stock options made from both 6061 aluminum (for tube axles) and 7075 T6 Aluminum (for high-strength hex shafts handling torsional loads). These shaft lengths are correctly toleranced such that they fit perfectly through bearings and hubs, without extra work.
While it's tough to get excited about a few pieces of shaft stock, these shafts are specifically created to reduce user frustration.
