4340 steel vs 4140 steel:For the different material comparisons, which one we should choose to use?

4140 steel China suppliers, wholesale, distributors, and stockholder–Dongguan Otai Special Steel Co Ltd. We Otai is a manufacturer and has a large quantity of stock in our warehouse. We supply in Round bar, gauge plate steel, pipe, tube, rod, square, hexagonal, blanks, plate, sheet, precision ground flat bar. Including precision ground bar stock, hollow bar, we provide black surface and black surface alloy steel material.

4340 alloy structural steel belongs to gear steel.

It is used for important tempering parts that require good toughness, high strength, and large size, such as heavy machinery high-load shaft, turbine shaft with a diameter greater than 250mm, helicopter rotor shaft, turbojet engine turboshaft, blade, high-load transmission parts, crankshaft fasteners. Gear, etc. It can also be used for rotor shaft and blade with an operating temperature of over 400℃. It can also be used to make important parts with special performance requirements after nitriding treatment, which can be used for ultra-high-strength steel after low-temperature tempering or isothermal quenching.

4140 steel, the steel has good workability, machining deformation of small, anti-fatigue performance is quite good.

On the hardenability of steel, 4140 heat treatment has good strength and good comprehensive mechanical properties, good manufacturability, high yield. The highest temperature is 427 degrees Celsius. 4140 strength, high hardenability, and good toughness, quenching deformation of small, high temperature creep rupture strength, and high. It is used for manufacturing forgings with higher strength and larger tempering cross-section than 35CrMo steel, such as big gear for locomotive traction, supercharger drive gear, rear axle, connecting rod, and spring clamp with great load also can be used for drilling pipe joint and fishing tool of oil deep well below 2000m and can be used for bending machine mold, etc.

Otai provides the grinding, milling, polishing, turning, drilling, and other machining services as your required tolerances and size.

Otai does not act as a material handler. We possess proprietary technology and continuously iterates. We undertake every order to end and solve customer’s problem without any hesitation on responsibility. We are welcome to your kind inquiry.
