AISI 4140 Tubing, a low-alloy steel marvel, combines manganese, molybdenum, and chromium, setting a benchmark for utility and adaptability. Equivalent materials and grades include EN# 1.7223, EN 42CrMo4, DIN 41CrMo4, BS 970 708M40, UNI 41CrMo4, and JIS SCM 440. This steel grade, unparalleled in usefulness, exhibits superb ductility, superior toughness, and outstanding wear resistance in tempered or quenched conditions.

AISI 4140 boasts a density of 0.284 lb/in³ (7.85 g/cm3) and a melting point of 2580 °F (1416 °C), contributing to its robust properties.

Exceptional impact resistance, high fatigue strength, superb torsional strength, excellent toughness, and remarkable abrasion resistance define AISI 4140, making it a standout choice in various applications.

The presence of molybdenum and chromium ensures excellent corrosion resistance, particularly against chlorides. This makes AISI 4140 suitable for environments where corrosion resistance is crucial. Manganese acts as a deoxidizer, enhancing hardenability and improving machinability. It combines with sulfur, making carburizing more effective.
