Briefing

4140 1.7225 SCM440 Alloy Steel Round Bar's chemical component and applications.

Detailed

AISI 4140 G41400 SCM440 42CrMo4 1.7225 Alloy Steel Round Bar

4140 Steel Introduce

AISI 4140 steel is a low alloy steel containing chromium, molybdenum, and manganese. It is widely used across numerous industries and is an excellent material choice due to its toughness, high fatigue strength, and abrasion and impact resistance. Not many grades can match the versatility and usefulness of 4140.

4140 Steel Applications

This alloy finds many applications as forgings for the aerospace and oil and gas industries, along with myriad uses in the automotive, agricultural and defense industries, Typical uses are forged gears and shafts, spindles, fixtures, jigs and collars.

Heat Treatment

AISI 4140 alloy steel is heated at 845°C (1550°F) followed by quenching in oil. Before hardening, it can be normalized by heating it at 913°C (1675°F) for a long period of time, followed by air cooling.

Forging

AISI 4140 alloy steel is forged at 926 to 1205°C (1700 to 2200°F)

Hot Working

AISI 4140 alloy steel can be hot worked at 816 to 1038°C (1500 to 1900°F)

Cold Working

AISI 4140 alloy steel can be cold worked using conventional methods in the annealed condition.

Annealing

AISI 4140 alloy steel is annealed at 872°C (1600°F) followed by slowly cooling in the furnace.

Tempering

AISI 4140 alloy steel can be tempered at 205 to 649°C (400 to 1200°F) depending upon the desired hardness level. The hardness of the steel can be increased if it has a lower tempering temperature. For example, a tensile strength of 225 ksi can be achieved by tempering at 316°C (600°F), and tensile strength of 130 ksi can be achieved by tempering at 538°C (1000°F).

Hardening

AISI 4140 alloy steel can be hardened by cold working, or heating and quenching.

Machinability

AISI 4140 alloy steel has good machinability in the annealed condition.

Forming

AISI 4140 alloy steel has high ductility. It can be formed using conventional techniques in the annealed condition. It requires more pressure or force for forming because it is tougher than plain carbon steels.

Welding

AISI 4140 alloy steel can be welded using all conventional techniques. However, the mechanical properties of this steel will be affected if it is welded in the heat-treated condition, and post-weld heat treatment should be performed.
