AISI 5140 alloy steel is a structural alloyed carbon steel accding to AISI/ASTM standard which is widely used in Low and moderately stressed parts for vehicles, engines and machines where hard, wear resisting surface is needed. The hardness as surface hardened is about 54 HRC.

HEAT TREATMENT OPTION
FABRICATION AND HEAT TREATMENT
Machinability
Long, gummy chips characterize this alloys machinability. It can be
machined in the annealed condition, however condition H1150M will
yield best results. Post machining solution treatment of parts will
be required prior to final hardening if machining in this
condition.
Welding
Successfully welded by common fusion and resistance methods, this alloy should not be joined by oxyacetylene welding. AWS E/ER630 filler metal is recommended if required.
Heat Treatment
CONDITION A--Soak at 1900 F (1038 C) for 30 minutes and cool below
60 F (16 C) for complete martensite transformation. CONDITION H
950- Treat Condition A material at 900 F(482 C) for 1 hour, air
cool.. CONDITION H925, H1025, H1075, H1100, H1150- Soak solution
treated material for 4 hours at specified temperature, air cool,
CONDITION H1150M- Soak solution treated material at 1400 F (760 C)
for 2 hours, air cool, then re-heat to 1150 F (620 C) for 4 hours
and air cool.
Forging
Soak for 1 hour at 2150 F (1177 C) prior to forging. Do not work
below 1850 F (1010 C). Post-work solution treatment is required
prior to final hardening.
Soft Annealing
Heat to 680-720℃, cool slowly. This will produce a maximum 5140
hardness of 241HB (Brinell hardness).
Tempering
Tempering temperature: 540-680℃.
Noramlizing of steel grade 5140
Temperature: 840-880℃
Hardening
Harden from a temperature of 820-850, 830-860℃ followed by water or
oil quenching.
