Specification at a Glance


  • Supply form — Round bar (flats on request)

  • Process — Hot forged / hot rolled

  • Condition — Annealed, or QT to 22–34 HRC

  • Diameter range — 20–400 mm

  • Standard — ASTM A29

  • Certificate — EN 10204 3.1 standard, 3.2 on request

  • Lead time — 15–30 days


Chemical Composition


4135 is a low-alloy chromium-molybdenum steel from ASTM A29. The 0.8–1.1 % chromium gives it through-hardenability beyond plain carbon steel, while molybdenum raises the high-temperature strength and resists temper embrittlement. It sits between 4130 and 4140 in carbon content, giving a useful balance of strength, toughness and weldability for medium-stress parts.

Mechanical Properties


Typical values for the QT condition at medium section. We quench and temper to your drawing spec and verify on test pieces taken from the actual heat.

Typical Applications


  • Machinery — crankshafts, gears, pinions and shafts

  • Oil & gas — drill collars, tool joints, subs

  • Automotive — axle shafts, steering components

  • Fasteners — high-strength bolts and studs


Heat Treatment Practice


4135 is normally oil-quenched from 840–870 °C and tempered between 540–680 °C depending on the strength/toughness balance required. For large sections water quenching with care is possible. If your drawing specifies a hardness range, tell us the working section — achievable core hardness depends on diameter and we will propose the exact cycle.


What We Do In-House


Most suppliers in this business are traders who subcontract everything. We run our own processes, which means shorter cycles and one point of accountability when something needs fixing.


  • Heat treatment shop — quenching and tempering to your target hardness, with furnace charts recorded per batch

  • Machining shop — rough turning, peeling and cutting to length, so your bar arrives ready for finish machining

  • Testing — ultrasonic per ASTM A388 / EN 10228-3, hardness mapping across the section, tensile and impact testing

  • Certification — EN 10204 3.1 as standard, 3.2 available with third-party witness (ABS, BV, CCS, GL)

  • Export packing — bundled, end-capped and rust-protected for sea freight


Frequently Asked Questions


Q1: What is the difference between 4135 and 4140?

A1: 4135 has 0.33–0.38 % carbon versus 0.38–0.43 % for 4140, so 4140 reaches slightly higher strength in the same section. For most medium-stress shafting 4135 is more economical and easier to weld; for maximum tensile service 4140 is preferred. See our AISI 4140 alloy steel round bar page.


Q2: Can you supply 4135 already quenched and tempered?

A2: Yes. We heat treat in our own shop and verify hardness at multiple points across the bar section. Tell us the required hardness range with the working diameter, because achievable core hardness depends on section size.


Q3: What certificates come with the shipment?

A3: EN 10204 3.1 mill certificate is included as standard, showing full heat analysis and mechanical test results. If you need 3.2 certification we arrange third-party inspection with ABS, BV, CCS or GL.
