1. What is an alloy steel AISI4140 pipe/tube?
High-strength steel with excellent hardenability, no discernible temper brittleness, high fatigue limit, multiple impact resistance after quenching and tempering, and strong low-temperature impact toughness is AISI 4140 steel. Large and medium-sized plastic molds that need a specific amount of strength and hardness can be made from this steel. Typically, surface quenching is employed as a heat treatment solution after tempering.
High strength, hardenability, good toughness, minimal deformation after quenching, high creep strength, and lasting strength at high temperatures are all properties of AISI4140 alloy steel. Large gears for locomotive traction, supercharger transmission gears, pressure vessel gears, rear axles, connecting rods, and spring clips are just a few examples of forgings that need higher strength and larger quenched and tempered cross-sections than 4135 steel. It can also be used for deep oil well drill pipe joints, fishing tools below 2000m, and bending machine molds, among other things.
