EN 10083-3 specifies the technical delivery conditions for semi-finished products, hot formed, e.g. blooms, billets, slabs, bars, wire rod, wide flats, plates, universal flats and sections and continuously cast semi-finished products, as well as hot or cold rolled sheets/plates and strips of the direct hardening alloy steel grades listed in Table 3 (chemical composition) and supplied in one of the heat treatment conditions given in Table 1. The steel grade 4140 is a popular choice within this standard.
Key Characteristics of EN 10083-3 4140 Alloy Structural Steel Coil:
- High Strength: 4140 steel offers good tensile and yield strength, making it suitable for demanding structural applications.
- Hardenability: This alloy steel is readily hardenable by heat treatment, allowing for tailored mechanical properties.
- Machinability: 4140 steel exhibits decent machinability in the annealed condition.
- Weldability: While weldable, pre- and post-weld heat treatment may be required depending on the application and welding process.
- Applications: Commonly used in gears, shafts, axles, connecting rods, and other components requiring high strength and toughness.
