AISI 4140: Alloy Steel Data Sheet: Composition, Applications and Properties

4140 Alloy Steel Data Sheet
4140 is an alloy steel that is supplied in either the annealed or prehardened condition. The prehardened condition is heat treated to a medium hardness (HRC 28/32) and is designated as 4140 HT. 4140 annealed is supplied in the soft condition and can be hardened to RC 54. 4140 annealed is designated as 4140 Ann or simply 4140. 4140 HT is supplied in many forms such as hot rolled or turned, ground and polished rounds and block or DCF plate to be used as a holder material for high strength structural components.

ASTM A276-98b, AISI 440C Stainless Steel Data Sheet: Composition, Applications and Properties

440C Stainless Steel Data Sheet

440C stainless steel is a martensitic grade of stainless steel that provides very good wear resistance combined with moderate corrosion resistance in mild environments. 440C is heat treatable to RC 59. This grade is commonly used in cutlery and food processing applications.
Read more:
440C Stainless steel is a type of modern steel and famous for its high corrosion resistant, wear resistance, strength and hardness qualities among all the stainless alloys, capable of attaining (after heat treatment) the highest hardness (60 HRC). It has good resistance to the atmosphere, fresh water and mild acids. It has best resistance in the hardened, tempered and passivated condition. It allows creating a smooth polished surface and Razor sharp edges. It is being used in cutting instruments, rolling element bearings, valve seats, high quality knife blades, surgical instruments, chisels, ball bearings and valve parts and most commonly used in the production of Cutting tools, including Haircutting Scissors, daggers and swords.
Grades 440A and 440B are identical except for slightly lower carbon contents (0.60 - 0.75% and 0.75 - 0.95% respectively), they attain lower hardness but slightly higher corrosion resistances. Although all three versions of this grade are standard grades, in practice 440C is more available than the A or B variants.
Another alloy 440F (UNS S44020) also exists, with the same high carbon content as 440C.

Corrosion Resistance

440C stainless steel is characterised by good corrosion resistance in mild domestic and industrial environments, including fresh water, organic materials, mild acids, various petroleum products. 440C also provides extreme high strength, hardness and wear resistance when in the hardened and tempered condition.

Thermal Treatments

Preheat : Optional preheat stage for unbalanced geometries or complex designs - 1100/1250F (590/675C), equalize, standard preheat stage - 1400/1500F (760/815C), equalize.

Austenize : 1850/1900F (1010/1020C), equalize, 30/45 minutes at temperature.

Quench : Air, positive pressure vacuum to below 125F (50C)(2 bar minimum). Interrupted oil to below 1000F (540C). Air cool to 150F (65C). Temper immediately.

Temper : 400/800F (205/425C), hold 2 hours at temperature, air cool. Temper twice. Avoid tempering between 800 and 1100F, due to a decrease in toughness and corrosion resistance.

Cryogenic Treating : Refrigeration treatments may improve long term dimensional stability by transforming retained austenite. Refrigeration treatments should generally be performed after the first temper, and must be followed by a temper.

AISI 1005: Properties of Carbon Steel AISI 1005, Composition, Mechanical Properties


AISI 1005 is a Standard grade Carbon Steel. It is composed of (in weight percentage) 0.06%(max) Carbon (C), 0.35%(max) Manganese (Mn), 0.04%(max) Phosphorus (P), 0.05%(max) Sulfur (S), and the base metal Iron (Fe). Other designations of AISI 1005 carbon steel include UNS G10050 and AISI 1005.

Steel is the common name for a large family of iron alloys. Steels can either be cast directly to shape, or into ingots which are reheated and hot worked into a wrought shape by forging, extrusion, rolling, or other processes. Wrought steels are the most common engineering material used, and come in a variety of forms with different finishes and properties. Carbon steels alloying elements do not exceed these limits: 1% carbon, 0.6% copper, 1.65% manganese, 0.4% phosphorus, 0.6% silicon, and 0.05% sulfur.
The typical elastic modulus of carbon steels at room temperature (25°C) ranges from 190 to 210 GPa. The typical density of carbon steels is about 7.85 g/cm3. The typical tensile strength varies between 276 and 1882 MPa. The wide range of ultimate tensile strength is largely due to different heat treatment conditions.

AISI 1340: Properties of Alloy Steel AISI 1335, Composition, Mechanical Properties


AISI 1340 is a Standard grade Alloy Steel. It is commonly called AISI 1340 Manganese steel. It is composed of (in weight percentage)
0.38-0.43% Carbon (C),
1.60-1.90% Manganese (Mn),
0.035%(max) Phosphorus (P),
0.04%(max) Sulfur (S),
0.15-0.30% Silicon (Si),
and the base metal Iron (Fe).
Other designations of AISI 1340 alloy steel include UNS G13400 and AISI 1340
Steel is the common name for a large family of iron alloys. Steels can either be cast directly to shape, or into ingots which are reheated and hot worked into a wrought shape by forging, extrusion, rolling, or other processes. Wrought steels are the most common engineering material used, and come in a variety of forms with different finishes and properties. Alloy steels are steels that exceed the element limits for Carbon steels. However, steels containing more than 3.99% chromium are classified differently as stainless and tool steels. Alloy steels also includes steels that contain elements not found in carbon steels such as nickel, chromium (up to 3.99%), cobalt, etc.
The typical elastic modulus of alloy steels at room temperature (25°C) ranges from 190 to 210 GPa. The typical density of alloy steels is about 7.85 g/cm3. The typical tensile strength varies between 758 and 1882 MPa. The wide range of ultimate tensile strength is largely due to different heat treatment conditions.

 2.      Density: The density of SAE 942X is approximately 7.85 g/cm³.

3.   Mechanical Properties: SAE 942X is a high-strength steel that can provide excellent mechanical properties. The typical tensile strength for this material ranges from 550 MPa to 700 MPa, and the yield strength ranges from 380 MPa to 500 MPa. The elongation is typically around 15-20%.

4.      Corrosion Resistance: SAE 942X contains alloying elements that provide some degree of corrosion resistance. However, it is not as corrosion resistant as stainless steel or other alloys specifically designed for corrosion resistance.

5.      Weldability: SAE 942X is generally considered to be weldable using common welding techniques like gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and shielded metal arc welding (SMAW). However, it is important to take proper precautions to avoid issues such as cracking or porosity.

Overall, SAE 942X is a high-strength, low-alloy steel that is commonly used in automotive and other industrial applications that require high strength and good weldability. Its mechanical properties make it suitable for use in structural components, such as chassis, suspension systems, and roll cages.
