ASTM A519 4130 Chromoly Steel Pipes: High-Strength Tubing for Aerospace & Heavy Machinery.
Seamless Quenched & Tempered Pipes (10–426mm OD, 1–100mm WT) with ±1% Dimensional Precision.
Manufactured to ASTM A519, AMS 6349, and EN 10297 standards, 4130 chromoly steel pipes offer 930 MPa tensile strength post-quenching, ideal for high-stress applications. Available in 3–12m lengths (customizable) with black, polished, or machined surfaces, these pipes support 15–20% weight reduction vs. carbon steel in aerospace and automotive systems.
