These look like very, very high quality rods to me. 10 rms micron finish is fabulous, not just good. thumbs up

One suggestion though: I recommend you order them cut to exactly the length you need. Sawing through these rods is not the easiest thing in the world...

I used some for my Z-Axis not from that company, but good stuff. If you need to cut it use the Dremmel Ez-Lock cut off wheels work great.

I thought that 303 is one of the softer steel alloys.. but maybe its just the finish that matters.
