AISI 4140H
Alloy steel is steel alloyed with different elements in total amounts between 1 and 50% by weight to enhance its mechanical properties such as strength, hardness, toughness and wear resistance. Low-alloy steels, on the other hand, are used to achieve better hardenability, which in turn enhances other mechanical properties. AISI 4140H is an H-steel grade alloy steel, commonly called AISI 4140H chromium-molybdenum steel.
