    Highly Machinable 4140 Alloy Steel Rods

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Steel. Highly Machinable 4140 Alloy Steel Rods.
    Often called ETD-150, this modified alloy steel is drawn at high temperatures for excellent strength and machinability. Also known as chrome-moly steel, 4140 alloy steel resists fracturing from repeated stress. It is used for a wide range of parts, such as gears, axles, and shafts. These rods have been hardened for added resistance to abrasion and impact.
    Note: Rods may be made from either 4140 or 4142 alloy steel. They are interchangeable in most applications.

    Impact-Resistant High-Temperature 4140 Alloy Steel Rods

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Steel. Impact-Resistant High-Temperature 4140 Alloy Steel Rods.
    Also known as Supercut 150™, these rods have been hardened as well as turned and polished, giving them double the elongation of ETD-150 rods to absorb impacts without breaking. They also maintain their strength at temperatures up to 1000° F. Often used for gears, axles, and shafts, 4140 alloy steel resists fracturing from repeated stress. It’s also called chrome-moly steel.
