Description

High Tensile Steel, AISI 4140, SCM440, 42CrMo4, 709, 7225, EN19, SCM4
AISI 4140 is now available with improved machinability, which greatly increases feeds and/or speeds, while also extending tool life without adversley affecting mechanical properties.

Pre hardened and tempered steel 4140 can be further surface hardened by flame or induction hardening and by nitriding.

1.7225 is used extensively in most industry sectors for a wide range of applications such as:
Adapters, Arbors, Axle Shafts, Bolts, Crankshafts, Connection Rods, Chuck Bodies, Collets, Conveyor Pins & Rolls, Ejector Pins, Forks, Gears, Guide Rods, Hydraulic Shafts & Parts,Lathe Spindles, Logging Parts, Milling Spindles, Motor Shafts, Nuts, Pinch Bars, Pins Various, Pinions, Pump Shafts, Rams, Sockets, Spindles, Sprockets, Studs, Tool Holders, Torsion Bars, Worms etc..

Typical Mechanical Properties for guidance only

What type of steel is 4140?
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.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Is 4130 or 4140 steel stronger?
Both are medium-carbon (0.30-0.60 % carbon) low-alloy steels. 4140 is similar in composition to 4130 except for the higher carbon content. … Because of its higher carbon content, 4140 steel has greater hardenability and strength than does 4130.

Can you Carburized 4140?
If you want the part carburized to your spec, then the suggestion of 8620 by arunmrao is a good oneIf you want the part induction hardened and tempered to your spec, then 4140 would be ok. I would limit the hardness to be under 60 HRC if it is 4140,
but 55-62 HRC is fine for carburized 8620.
