Oversized Hardened Multipurpose 4140 Alloy Steel Bars

- Yield Strength: 95,000 psi
- Hardness: Rockwell C25 (Hard)
- Fabrication: Hot Rolled
- Specifications Met: ASTM A578, ASTM A829
Because the thickness is oversized, you can finish these bars to your exact requirements. They are hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. Also known as chrome-moly steel, this versatile alloy steel is used for a variety of parts, such as molds and structural supports. It resists fracturing from repeated stress. These ground bars are decarb-free, which means residue created during manufacturing has been removed. As a result, these bars have a uniform surface that's ready for machining, heat treating, and finishing. These bars have been manufactured to meet ASTM standards for quality and performance.
Note: Bars may be made from either 4140 or 4142 alloy steel. They are interchangeable in most applications.
If you don't see the size you're looking for, please specify a length under additional bar lengths.
