AISI/ASTM 4340 belongs to the American standard high-strength alloy structural steel, which is made of high-quality carbon structural steel
by appropriately adding one or more alloying elements (the total content does not exceed 5%). AISI 4340 is also one kind of nickel
chromium molybdenum steels.It will get high strength after the heat treat. And it has good toughness, fatigue resistance, impact
toughness and etc. 4340 steel round bar sheet plate will get high tensile strength, hardness and toughness after heat treatment.
It is used widely in the transmission components of heavy chemical machinery. Different sections of each part of the casting which
cause the temperature difference stress and phase transformation stress.

The Brinell hardness GBW of steel in annealed or high temperature tempered supply
state is less than or equal to 269;
4340 steel offers toughness and high strength inthe heat treated condition,
with in round bar 4340 is available fully certified and suitable for applications
requiring a quality tensile alloy steel.AISI 4340 is commonly supplied quenched
and tempered with a hardness of between 24 to 29HRc.
6.4340 Steel Applications
It is used as important quenched and tempered parts that require good toughness, high strength and large size, such as
heavy machinery and high-load shafts, turbine shafts with a diameter greater than 250mm, helicopter rotor shafts, turbojet
engine turbine shafts, blades, high Loaded transmission parts, crankshaft fasteners. Gears, etc.; can also be used for rotor
shafts and blades whose operating temperature exceeds 400 °C; can also be used to manufacture important parts with special
performance requirements after nitriding treatment, and can be used for ultra-high temperature after low temperature tempering
or austempering. Use of strength steel
