Fatigue-Resistant 4340 Alloy Steel Sheets

- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Not Rated
- Heat Treatable: Yes
- Max. Hardness After Heat Treatment: Rockwell C52
- Fabrication: Hot Rolled
- Specifications Met: ASTM A829
Made of 4340 alloy steel, these sheets hold up to high heat, hard impacts, and heavy wear thanks to high levels of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum. They’re often used to make machine tool bases and structural panels. For even more wear resistance, you can harden the surface with heat treating. These sheets are manufactured to ASTM A829 standards for quality and performance.
