Hardness Range of 4140 Steel After Quenching and Tempering
4140 steel is a low-alloy steel commonly used for manufacturing mechanical parts and tools. Quenching and tempering is a heat treatment process applied to steel to enhance its mechanical properties and hardness. During the quenching and tempering process of 4140 steel, controlling the process parameters can achieve varying hardness ranges. Quenching and tempering involves
