Alloy Steel Plate 4140 is a flat shaped, plate of oil-hardening, chromium-molybdenum 4140 steel.
It has good strength and wear resistance, excellent toughness and ductility. 4140 Alloy steel has the ability to resist stress and creep at prolonged high temperatures (up to 1000°F).
4140 Alloy Steel is also available in leaded grades which greatly improves machinability. However leaded grades should not be used in applications where the temperature is elevated. This can cause lower ductility in these grades.
4140 alloy steel material is a high quality Quenched and Tempered Alloy Structural steel, It belong to the high quality medium carbon alloy steel, Oil Quenched & Tempered Hardenss is 28-34 HRC.4140 Annealing delivery hardenss less than 250HB.

Forming
AISI 4140 alloy steel has high ductility. It can be formed using
conventional techniques in the annealed condition. It requires more
pressure or force for forming because it is tougher than plain
carbon steels.
Welding
AISI 4140 alloy steel can be welded using all conventional
techniques. However, the mechanical properties of this steel will
be affected if it is welded in the heat treated condition, and post
weld heat treatment should be performed.
Forging
AISI 4140 alloy steel is forged at 926 to 1205°C (1700 to 2200°F)
Hot Working
AISI 4140 alloy steel can be hot worked at 816 to 1038°C (1500 to
1900°F)
Cold Working
AISI 4140 alloy steel can be cold worked using conventional methods
in the annealed condition.
AISI 4140 steel can be cut to the size you need.
