AISI 4140: ASTM A29 (V01.05)  


GENERAL SCOPE
 

This low alloy steel containing Chromium and Molybdenum is the most widely used alloy for oil patch applications. Usually supplied in the hardened and tempered condition at 22 HRC max. it also finds favor in many applications requiring higher strength levels up to 150 KSI 0.2% PS. The grade is not NACE MR0175 approved in these conditions, and should not be used in environments containing H2S.

It is extensively used in tubular form for downhole tools.


Several hybrid analysis are available all based on the AISI chemistry. The most common change is to increase the Molybdenum level at 35% max on diameters, typically greater than 6". Increasing Molybdenum improves the hardenability.

The hardenability limitations of this grade (depth to which it will harden / obtain the specified mechanical properties after heat treatment) must always be taken into account when designing and selecting equipment.
