Steel is an alloy of iron and about 1% carbon. Small amounts of other alloying elements such as molybdenum or chromium are sometimes added to improve their properties. Steel provides a good balance between cost and function because it is easy to process and weld. However, erosion occurs over time, so surface treatment is needed to protect it.<\/p>

Steel and steel are among the most widely used manufacturing materials, used in every major industry from construction to automobiles. Its cost performance and some beneficial features make it a versatile material.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

4140 steel is very similar to 4130, but has a higher carbon content. The extra carbon increases its strength and gives it better quenching properties. The extra chromium also improves its corrosion resistance.

4140 PH grade steel is a pre-hardened version of standard 4140 steel with outstanding mechanical strength and hardness capabilities. Its pre-hardening eliminates the need for post-processing heat treatment. This is ideal for finished parts where heat treatment can cause unacceptable deformation. Typical applications include shafts, rods, and molds.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

O1 steel is an oil-cured cold-worked steel. It is characterized by very strong wear resistance and the ability to maintain sharp edges. It is used in the manufacture of punches, cutting and stamping tools as well as blades and other cutting tools.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

We offer a wide range of surface treatments for steel.<\/p>

Nickel plating: We can uniformly plate nickel on carbon steel to improve its corrosion resistance and wear resistance. This process deposits a 0.1 mm thick layer of nickel on the surface of the component.<\/p>

Powder coating: The powder coating produces a strong and bright surface, usually between 0.15 and 0.3 mm thick.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Steel is one of the cheapest materials suitable for CNC machining. \u00a0However, take care to avoid unnecessary machining costs. \u00a0Below are some cost-saving design tips:<\/p>

Part setup: Designing a part to reduce the number of machining setups can significantly reduce the cost of manufacturing. \u00a0This is especially true when machining cheap materials as any cost savings on the material can be quickly eliminated by expensive setups.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
