4340M Steel Alloy Forgings
4340M Steel Alloy Forgings: Ultra-High Strength, Fracture-Resistant Steel for Demanding Applications
4340M Steel Alloy Forgings are a premium-grade, modified version of 4340 steel, known for their ultra-high strength, fracture toughness, and exceptional fatigue resistance. These forgings are engineered for industries where structural integrity, impact resistance, and mechanical stability are critical, such as aerospace, defense, automotive, oil and gas, and heavy manufacturing.
At Hub Metals and Trading Inc., we supply 4340M Steel Alloy Forgings designed for extreme environments and the most demanding applications, ensuring superior performance and longevity.
4340M Steel Alloy Forgings are composed of Nickel (1.65-2.00%), Chromium (0.70-0.90%), Molybdenum (0.20-0.30%), Carbon (0.38-0.43%), and trace elements such as manganese and vanadium. The modified version includes additional refinement processes, enhancing its toughness, wear resistance, and fatigue strength.
Key Features:
- Ultra-High Strength: Exceptional tensile and yield strength for load-bearing applications.
- Fracture Toughness: Resists cracking and deformation under extreme stress.
- Heat Treatable: Achieves enhanced hardness through quenching and tempering.
- Wear Protection: Exceptional hardness for abrasion resistance.
- Fatigue Resistant: Ideal for components exposed to cyclic stress.
