4140 Alloy Steel Bar Forms

Review the bar surface and end profile to choose a suitable product form for machining or heat treatment.

GRADE COMPOSITION

SAE 4140 Chemical Composition

Review the Cr-Mo alloy composition before specifying testing requirements and heat-analysis documentation.

Nominal SAE 4140 Chemistry

ElementReference mass fraction
Carbon (C)0.38–0.43%
Manganese (Mn)0.75–1.00%
Silicon (Si)0.15–0.35%
Chromium (Cr)0.80–1.10%
Molybdenum (Mo)0.15–0.25%
Phosphorus (P)≤0.035%
Sulfur (S)≤0.040%

Reference ranges for SAE 4140 / UNS G41400. The specified ASTM/SAE edition, applicable check-analysis rules and the supplied heat certificate govern acceptance.

What the Alloying Elements Mean for Your Parts

Chromium and molybdenum are used to develop hardenability in 4140. The section diameter and treatment route influence the resulting strength and hardness.

  • Order by 4140 chemistry and the applicable bar specification
  • Include your planned heat-treatment or specified delivery condition
  • Request mechanical and hardness results where your component drawing requires them
For demanding machined components, put the required final mechanical properties and test locations on the purchase order.
PROPERTY CONTROL

4140 Mechanical Properties by Supply Condition

Specify heat treatment, size and the required acceptance values together so the quoted material matches your component requirements.

Material State & Inspection Basis

Supply ConditionBuyer Specification
Hot-wroughtGrade chemistry, diameter, surface and any additional hardness or strength acceptance requirements
AnnealedAnnealed condition, hardness target, section size and machinability requirements
NormalizedDefined normalizing treatment, dimensional scope and requested tensile properties
Quenched & tempered (Q&T)Strength class or specified yield, tensile, hardness and impact tests under the agreed contract

Strength values vary substantially with treatment and diameter. ASTM A434/A434M includes specific Q&T strength classes and size limitations.

Q&T Alloy Bar for Your Parts

For shafts, couplings and loaded components, indicate your requested heat treatment and inspection conditions. This gives your procurement team a consistent basis for price and quality comparison.

  • Diameter and finished or rough-machined dimensions
  • Condition: annealed, normalized or quenched & tempered
  • Minimum yield / tensile strength, hardness range, and test sampling
  • Applicable ASTM standard and MTC scope
An SAE 4140 grade designation establishes chemistry; your purchase requirements establish the mechanical acceptance target.
COMPARE BEFORE YOU BUY

4140, 4340 & 42CrMo Alloy Steel Bar

Review closely related Cr-Mo alloy grades against the governing material standard, chemistry and required heat-treatment condition.

SAE 4140 / UNS G41400

Chromium-molybdenum low-alloy steel used as machining and heat-treatment stock for medium- and heavy-duty parts.

  • Cr 0.80–1.10% / Mo 0.15–0.25%
  • Strength depends on delivered condition and bar diameter
  • Quotation based on your actual property and size requirements

Other Alloy Steel Grades

4340 is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum grade. 42CrMo is a related GB designation. Each uses its own specifications and acceptance rules.

Grade similarities help you compare sourcing options. Material substitution follows project approval, the applicable standard and required test conditions.
