What is SAE 1140 steel?
1140 steel is a slightly higher carbon and manganese content plain carbon steel than 1020. It is used for its somewhat greater strength while still having good ductility. Machinability of 1140 steel is quite good, rating a 70% against the standard 1112 steel of 100% machinability.
What material is SAE 3140?
Nickel-Chromium Steel (SAE 3140)is defined as steel containing both nickel and chromium, usually in a ratio of 2 to 3 parts nickel to 1 part chromium. The 2:1 ratio gives great toughness, and the nickel and chromium are intended to balance each other in physical effects.
What are SAE grades?
The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) viscosity grading system for engine oils consists of “W” grades that define low temperature viscosities and “straight” grades that put further limits on high temperature viscosities.
What is the carbon content of AISI 3140?
0.38 – 0.43

What does SAE number mean?
Definition of SAE number : a number in a standard series from 10 to 70 for grading lubricating oil as to viscosity the higher the SAE number the greater the viscosity.
What is the ultimate strength value of AISI 3140 Oqt 900 F?
AISI 3140 Properties

What do SAE numbers mean?
the U.S. Society of Automotive Engineers
SAE number, code for specifying the viscosity of lubricating oil, established by the U.S. Society of Automotive Engineers. The numbers for crankcase lubricants range from 5 to 50, for transmission and axle lubricants they range from 75 to 250; the lower the number, the more readily the oil flows.
What SAE grade means?
The SAE steel grades system is a standard alloy numbering system (SAE J1086 – Numbering Metals and Alloys) for steel grades maintained by SAE International. In the 1930s and 1940s, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and SAE were both involved in efforts to standardize such a numbering system for steels.
