Custom 40CrMo/42CrMo machined parts for robotics, hydraulics & oilfields. Strict thread control, full heat treatment & MTC certification. Get a quick quote!
40CrMo (commonly equivalent to 42CrMo / AISI 4140) is a high-strength medium-carbon chromium-molybdenum alloy structural steel widely recognized across global industries. Renowned for its superior hardenability, exceptional fatigue resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and excellent cost efficiency, 40CrMo is the material of choice for heavy-duty, high-wear, and fatigue-critical mechanical parts.
As a specialized manufacturing supplier of non-standard custom CNC machined components, we offer comprehensive, end-to-end solutions—from raw material sourcing and precision multi-axis machining to custom heat treatment and surface finishing.
To support international procurement and overseas project engineering, we supply and machine certified 40CrMo / 42CrMo steel matching major global standards:
| Country / Standard Body | Standard Code | Grade / Designation | Technical & Application Context |
| China (GB/T) | GB/T 3077 | 42CrMo / 40CrMo | Standard high-tensile structural alloy steel |
| United States (AISI / SAE / ASTM) | ASTM A29 / SAE J404 | 4140 / UNS G41400 | Universally specified alloy steel for high-stress parts |
| Germany / Europe (DIN / EN) | EN 10083-3 | 42CrMo4 / 1.7225 | Benchmark steel for European automotive & heavy machinery |
| Japan (JIS) | JIS G4053 | SCM440 / SCM440H | Standard material for Japanese precision machinery & power transmission |
| United Kingdom (BS) | BS 970 | 708M40 / EN19 | High-tensile steel for heavy-duty drive components |
| International (ISO) | ISO 683-1 | 42CrMo4 | Globally harmonized specification for heat-treated steels |
Exceptional Tensile & Yield Strength: After quenching and tempering (Q+T), 40CrMo yields an ultimate tensile strength exceeding 1,000 MPa, with outstanding impact toughness even at low temperatures.
Deep Hardenability: Excellent hardening penetration allows thick cross-sectional parts (e.g., large-diameter shafts and heavy forgings) to achieve uniform mechanical properties throughout the core.
Versatile Heat Treatment Adaptation: Responds predictably to Quenching & Tempering (QT), High-Frequency Induction Hardening, Gas Nitriding, Carburizing, and QPQ processing—achieving surface hardness levels from HRC 55–62 or HV 600–800+.
Superior ROI & Cost Advantage: Delivers mechanical performance matching far more expensive high-alloy or stainless steels while keeping material acquisition and machining costs competitive.
We offer complete CNC precision machining tailored to custom non-standard component specifications:
CNC Precision Turning & Mill-Turn Processing: High-efficiency turning for stepped shafts, slender shafts, eccentric components, disc parts, and high-precision threads. Concentricity and total indicator reading (TIR) held within $\pm 0.005\text{ mm}$.
3-Axis, 4-Axis & 5-Axis CNC Milling: Multi-axis single-setup machining for complex structural housings, robotic joints, mounting brackets, and custom manifold blocks with strict positional tolerances.
Precision Grinding (OD / ID / Surface / Centerless / Thread Grinding): Hard-turned or post-heat-treatment finish grinding, achieving tight dimensional tolerances ($\pm 0.002\text{ mm}$) and surface roughness down to $\text{Ra } 0.2\text{ — }\text{Ra } 0.4\ \mu\text{m}$.
Deep-Hole Drilling & Precision Boring: Custom deep-hole drilling for long hollow shafts, hydraulic cylinder tubes, and internal stepped bores with strict straightness control.
Wire EDM & Sink EDM (Slow-Feed Wire Cutting): High-precision cutting of keyways, splines, internal teeth, and complex cavities on pre-hardened components with minimal thermal distortion.
In-House Managed Heat Treatment: Full control over Quenching & Tempering (QT), induction hardening, gas nitriding, soft nitriding, and stress-relief annealing.
Surface Finishing & Anti-Corrosion: Black oxide (bluing), electroless nickel plating, hard chrome plating, manganese phosphating, and QPQ salt bath treatment.
