AISI 4042 round bar chemical composition and mechanical properties


Discover the top list of AISI 4042 stainless steel bar manufacturers and suppliers in the Middle East
What is AISI 4042 steel rod used for?
Steel is a versatile material that has a variety of applications. 4042 steel is a type of steel that is known for its toughness and strength. It is often used in the manufacturing of tool and die components and in the automotive and aerospace industries. It can also be used for products that require high wear resistance, such as knife blades and chainsaw chains.

Difference between cold drawn, bright drawn, polished AISI 4042 steel rod
Another essential factor to remember is the difference between cold, bright-drawn, and polished AISI 4042 Steel Rods. Cold-drawn rods are an excellent choice for applications that require strength and hardness due to their lack of grain structure. AISI 4042 Steel Bright Bar has a smooth finish but can be easily scratched or damaged with wear and tear. However, they offer superior tensile strength and ductility compared to cold-drawn rods.
Finally, the Alloy Steel AISI 4042 Polished Bar is the most expensive option, as its surface has been carefully polished and buffed to create a highly reflective finish. It is ideal for decorative applications where a smooth finish is desired. The added cost also means that you get superior corrosion resistance, as the surface of the rod will be unaffected by chemicals or moisture.

What is peeled and reeled SAE-4042 hex bar?
Peeled and reeled SAE-4042 Hex Bars are created by extending a hot rolled rod and then cold finishing it. This process gives the hex bars a better surface finish and helps reduce the bar’s diameter. The bars are then peeled, which means that they are straightened and polished to provide a much smoother finish. Reeling, on the other hand, is a process that increases the hex bar’s uniformity by ensuring all sides are elongated equally.
The result is a product with superior strength, excellent corrosion resistance and consistent performance that can be used in various applications like aerospace components, automotive components, bearings and shafts, pumps and valves, marine applications, aircraft parts and more. If you’re looking for something long-lasting with excellent quality that won’t break your budget, the peeled and reeled SAE G40420 Molybdenum Steel Square Bar should be on your list!
