    Additional Specifications

    Also known as chrome-moly steel, this versatile alloy steel is used for a wide range of parts, such as molds and structural supports. It resists fracturing from repeated stress. You can also surface harden it with heat to add wear resistance.

    If you don't see the size you're looking for, check out our Made-to-Order 4140 Alloy Steel Bars.

    Note: Bars may be made from either 4140 or 4142 alloy steel. They are interchangeable in most applications.
