Depends on which grenade. Assuming you mean the standard fragmentation grenade used by the US Military, they are made from sheet steel. Coiled inside of the body is a steel spring, notched in over 900 places. On detonation, the steel spring breaks apart at the notches, and the bits become projectiles. For the WW 2 era fragmentation grenade, the bodies were iron castings.
