42CrMo4 steel is an industrial material which owns a wider uses than 35CrMo steel. Because 42CrMo4 steel posesses a better steel strength and higher quality forgings section, 42CrMo4 is widely used in application fields like locomotive traction with a large gear, supercharger transmission gear, rear axle, by the load of great connecting rod and spring clip, 42CrMo4 also Can be also used for the deep well below 2000m drill pipe joints and salvage tools.
42CrMo4 (1.7225) alloy structural steel characteristics: excellent strength, high hardenability, good toughness, quenching deformation, high temperature, high creep strength and lasting strength. 42CrMo4 steel is the improved material of the United States AISI standard 4140 steel. The steel is machinable, easy to polish, easy to texture, can be plated.
42CrMo4 (1.7225) alloy structural steel delivery status: heat treatment (normalizing, annealing or high temperature tempering) or non-heat treatment, delivery status should be specified in the contract.
