Default is Type 303 stainless steel the right material for a burnisher?

They have dowel pins. If you want something longer, look for drill blanks.
Make sure it is a drill blank, not drill rod. Drill blanks are made from
hardened and ground HSS. They come in the same sizes as twist drills. A 1/2
inch would be great. You might find it cheaper to buy a burnisher though.
BTW, if you want to do your own hardening, go ahead and buy a piece of drill
rod. Usually comes in 36" lengths in whatever diameter you want. Unhardened.

I'm trying to find the correct material in the Grainger's catalog to use
a burnisher.
