ETD 150
E.T.D. 150 stands for Elevated Temperature Drawing process. This eliminates heat
treating and secondary operations such as straightening, finish grinding, cleaning and
inspections. It can be roll threaded, knurled, and plated.

AISI 4140/41L40 - ANNEALED

HR/CF

(ALSO AVAILABLE IN DCF)

This medium carbon alloy grade is widely used for many general purpose parts requiring
high tensile strength and toughness. 4140 contains chromium and molybdenum as
alloying elements and may be heat treated over a wide range to give the combined
advantages of proper hardness, strength and ductility. In conditions where localized
hardness may be required, this steel is readily flame or induction hardened.

AISI 4140/4142 CF Q&T


ROUNDS SIZE CHART

COLD FINISH/T&P

4140/4142 CF Q&T SR is a general purpose alloy used where substantial strength,


toughness and hardness are required. Through tempering, quenching and the coldfinishing process, the end result is improved strength and ductility, improved toughness,
better fatigue resistance and superior surface condition.
4140 CF Q&T SR Rounds are also calcium-treated for improved machinability and fully
stress relieved after drawing so that distortion during machining is held to a minimum.

AISI 4150 HOT ROLLED ANNEALED

4150 grade is a medium-carbon, chromium-molybdenum steel. 4150 is also capable


of good strength and wear resistance, has excellent toughness, good ductility and has
the ability to resist stress and creep at prolonged high temperatures. In the annealed
condition, machinability is improved.
