DETAILED INFORMATION

With high intensity, high hardenability, and a high degree of hardenability, 42CrMo4 steel is the most common chromium-molybdenum steel in existence. Because 42CrMo4 round steel is made with a higher percentage of carbon and chromium than 34CrMo4, it performs better than 34CrMo4. A 42CrMo4 alloy steel has higher strength and hardenability than 34CrMo4 alloy steel. 42CrMo4 alloy steel has the best fatigue strength and good low-temperature impact toughness. Temper brittleness is not evident in 42CrMo4 alloy steel.

42CrMo4 Steel is a high-quality Quenched and Tempered Alloy Structural Steel. It’s part of the low carbon, low alloy chromium, molybdenum, and nickel case hardening steels. Its hardness at quench and temperature is 18-22 HRC. It’s easy to weld.

A wide range of 42CrMo4 Round Bars is offered to our customers by our company, and these round bars are of the highest quality and used to make machinery and auto parts that our company manufactures. Considering the quality parameters that the industry has established in the market, these products have been manufactured. A test certificate is always included with 42CrMo4 Steel Round Bars, and they are available in bulk or retail quantities, depending on customers’ requirements. Our company supplies 42CrMo4 round bars to various engineering and forging industries worldwide.

Low alloy steel is defined as 42CrMo4 Alloy Steel – SAE-AISI 4140. This steel is typically available hardened and tempered in a range of 850 to 1000 Mpa (condition T) – it is a general purpose high tensile steel made up of 1% chromium–molybdenum with a medium hardenability. Medium carbon steels are high-strength steels, and EN19 is one of the most important members within this category. They respond positively to various types of heat treatments. Typically, 42CrMo4 alloy steel is available readily machined in the ' T' condition in a high quality, high tensile alloy steel with excellent flexibility, shock resistance, and wear resistance. Our company specializes in hot rolled round steel bars from EN19, 4140, and 42CrMo4.

42CrMo4 steel Heat treatment Related

  • Annealing of 42CrMo4 Alloy structural steel

After a slow heating to 872 °C and sufficient time for the steel to be thoroughly heated, the steel should then be allowed to cool slowly in the furnace until it obtains a Brinell hardness of MAX 250 HB.

  • Hardening of DIN Alloy structural steel 42CrMo4

When it reaches room temperature, the tool is tempering. In the first quenching process, the tool is heated to 880°C slowly; then, after adequate soaking at this temperature, it is quenched in oil or water. The second quenching process heats to 780-820°C, then quenches in oil or water.

  • Tempering of 42CrMo4 Alloy structural steel

The steel should be heated to 205-649°C, then cooled in water or oil. The typical delivery hardness is 18-22 HRC.

  • Forging of Alloy Steel 42CrMo4

There is a temperature range of 926°C to 1205°C (1700°F to 2200°F) for forging 42CrMo4 alloy steel

 42CrMo4 steel Regular size and Tolerance

Density:

7.85kg/m3 Tensile strength: 655 MPA

Machinability:

Due to its high machinability, it can be machinable in the annealed condition of 42CrMo4 alloy steel.

Welding:

Alloy steel 42CrMo4 can be friction welded. Preheating 42CrMo4 to 200-300°C is highly recommended to avoid deterioration of the chrome layer. However, it should not exceed the upper limit of 200°C. To limit the formation of unwanted microstructures in the welded zone, precautions must be taken to reduce the risk of deterioration of the chrome layer.

Weldability

This engineering steel has limited weldability, so it is strongly recommended to pre-heat it to 200-300°C before welding so that the chrome layer does not deteriorate under higher temperatures.

Several precautions should be taken to minimize the formation of unwanted microstructures in the friction welding of alloy steel 42CrMo4, even though this steel can be friction welded.

Gas Content Of 42crmo4 Steel

As the general name implies, gases in steel refer to oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, and other gases absorbed by steel in the medium during the smelting or welding of the steel or the chemical and electrochemical reactions occurring on its surface. It is essential to strictly control the gas content in steel to prevent it from affecting its performance.

  • Oxygen

The steelmaking process is an oxidation process, and even though ferromanganese, ferrosilicon, aluminum, and other deoxidizers are added later during the steelmaking process, some oxygen still dissolves in the solid steel during the oxidation process.

There is a reduction in 42CrMo4 steel’s tensile strength, plasticity, and toughness as oxygen dissolves in ferritin or forms oxides such as FeO, SiO2, MnO, and Al2O3 (that is, nonmetallic inclusions in steel). In addition to decreasing fatigue strength, 42CrMo4 steel also deteriorates in hot and cold workability when exposed to inclusions.

Due to this, we must strictly adopt oxygen control technologies, such as the VD deoxidation of 42CrMo4 steel, to keep its oxygen content under or even below 20ppm when produced.

  • Nitrogen

When steelmaking takes place, molten steel absorbs nitrogen from the air. If 42CrMo4 steel has no Al, Ti, Zr, and other elements, the nitrogen and iron form a needle-like compound known as Fe4 N. Even though Fe4N increases the strength of 42CrMo4 steel, the metal is greatly reduced in its plasticity and toughness thanks to Fe4N. One part of Fe4N is soluble in ferrite, and the other forms non-metallic inclusions in the steel.

With the two methods combined, we can effectively reduce the soil’s nitrogen content and control the nitrogen content below 90 ppm by preventing the LF nitrogen absorption technology and increasing the VD denitrification rate.

  • Hydrogen

Steel becomes less soluble in hydrogen as the temperature decreases. When hydrogen exists in an atomic state, it dissolves into the crevices of iron, reducing its solubility. Steel becomes less soluble in hydrogen as the temperature decreases. A steel ingot or forging that has dissolved hydrogen over 3 milliliters per 100 grams will be in a molecular state, causing hair-like cracks to appear inside the steel ingot or forging known as cracking. They resemble oval silver-white spots, which are also referred to as white spots.

Many types of white spots in steel cause hydrogen embrittlement, but they are not easy to create in low-carbon steels. The most sensitive metals to hydrogen embrittlement, however, are medium-carbon alloy steels (such as AISI 1045 Steel, C55 Steel) as well as medium-carbon Ni-Cr-Mo steels (such as 34CrNiMo6 Steel, 30CrNiMo8 Steel, AISI 4340 Steel). In addition, 42CrMo4 steel very easily develops white spots on the surface, which can cause it to crack easily.

The VD vacuum degassing technology can efficiently remove hydrogen. The hydrogen content can generally be controlled below 2.0 ppm using vacuum degassing technology. The 42CrMo4 steel can also be annealed at about 650°C to remove hydrogen from the steel to prevent embrittlement. By doing so, the supersaturation state will be eliminated, and the purpose of hydrogen removal will be accomplished.

How To Manufacture 42crmo4 Steel?

There are several stages involved in the manufacture of high-quality 42CrMo4 steel, and each of them requires a large amount of experience and a high degree of quality control. This paper will discuss some key points regarding manufacturing 42CrMo4 steel in general.

  • Smelting & Casting Technology

In smelting and casting 42CrMo4, one of the most common methods is the electric arc furnace, followed by secondary refining and vacuum degassing. The other method is the converter steelmaking and continuous casting technology that large steel mills adopt.

A major difference between electric arc furnace steelmaking and converter steelmaking is that electric arc furnace steelmaking is a small batch production method, and scrap steel greatly affects the composition of the molten steel. However, converter steelmaking is suitable for mass production, and the molten steel produced is very pure. It is less energy-consuming than electric arc furnace steelmaking and has a shorter smelting cycle.

  • Hot Processing Method

As a result of the smelting and casting technology, the 42CrMo4 steel ingots manufactured by EAL+LF+VD are mainly used for hot forging processing, including free forging and die forging.

Usually, 42CrMo4 billets made by converter + continuous casting technology are used as hot-rolled products, and there is a high degree of production efficiency with these billets.

Finally, it is important to note that they can be applied to each other, but their sizes must match to ensure sufficient compression.

  • Preliminary Heat Treatment Process Selection

It is usual for 42CrMo4 steel to be delivered without heat treatment after hot rolling or hot forging. However, sometimes for reasons of machinability, 42CrMo4 steel is often selected for soft annealing to boost the material’s machinability.

It is often the case that 42CrMo4 normalizing is chosen to improve the processing performance, eliminate internal stress, and ensure a good metallographic structure for the final heat treatment of the steel.

How Hard is 42CrMo4 Steel?

This steel is usually supplied under hot-rolled or annealed conditions, and its hardness is usually lower than 241HB, so it is difficult for a steel of this hardness to perform well in the application of the product that requires it.

The 42CrMo4 steel is not suitable for induction hardening but for use as a wide range of parts in various temperatures. It must be quenched and tempered for use in various temperature management applications. Its hardness ranges between 28 and 58HRC, but its preference is 28-34HRC.

With the application of nitriding, it is possible to achieve a surface hardness of 550-700HV3, with a depth of nitration hardness of 0.1-0.6mm, on 42CrMo4 steel whose hardness can be increased.

Applications:

The 42CrMo4 steel is characterized by high strength, hardenability, toughness, quenching of small deformations, and creep rupture strength at high temperatures. It is widely used in locomotive traction gears, superior drive gears, pressure vls, gears, of and rear axles, and is affected by load and spring clip links. 42CrMo4 can also be used for oil drilling pipeline joints, fishing tools that are 2000m deep, and bending machine molds.

Our 42CrMo4 steel is used in various applications, such as

  • Fasteners
  • Shafts
  • Crankshaft
  • Machinery Par, fishing Collets
  • Conveyors and Rolandouplings
  • Drill Collars
  • Steel Piston Rods
  • Steel Ejector

Many capplicationspply for alloy steel rods and bars, but World Iron&Steel is one of them.
