Product Overview

High-strength, hardenable alloy bars for engineering and pressure parts

Alloy steel round bars contain controlled additions of chromium, molybdenum and, in some grades, nickel. These elements dramatically improve hardenability, so the bars can be quenched and tempered to high strength and toughness through large sections. AISI 4140 and its British equivalent EN19 are the workhorse medium-carbon chrome-moly steels for shafts, gears and bolting; AISI 4130 offers a lower carbon level for better weldability; and EN24 (≈ AISI 4340) adds 1.5% nickel for the highest strength and toughness in heavy sections.

For pressure-retaining components, we also supply ASTM A182 F11 and F22 forged bars, which are machined into flanges, forged fittings, valve bodies and tube-sheets for high-temperature service. All bars are sourced from approved mills, identified by heat number, ultrasonically tested on request and supplied with EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificates. Saw cutting, peeling, turning and heat treatment to your required hardness are available from our Mumbai facility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about alloy steel round bars

Both are chrome-moly steels with 0.80–1.10% Cr and 0.15–0.25% Mo. 4140 has higher carbon (0.38–0.43%) and manganese, so it reaches higher hardness and strength after heat treatment. 4130 (0.28–0.33% C) is easier to weld and is preferred for fabricated structures and sour-service parts.

They are close equivalents rather than identical grades. EN19 (BS 970 709M40) has slightly higher molybdenum than AISI 4140, and EN24 (817M40) is the nearest British equivalent to AISI 4340, with 1.30–1.70% nickel for higher toughness in large sections.

We supply bars hot rolled, annealed (for easy machining), normalized, or hardened and tempered to a specified hardness range such as 28–32 HRC for 4140 or the BS 970 "T" condition for EN19 and EN24. Peeled, turned and ground finishes are also available.

Yes. Bars can be ultrasonically tested to SEP 1921, ASTM A388 or EN 10228-3 and are supplied with EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificates. Third-party inspection by BV, TÜV, SGS or Lloyd's can be arranged on request.
