ASTM A519 SAE 1026 Seamless Tubing
High-quality seamless tubing made to ASTM A519 SAE 1026 specifications.
Steel grade 4130 ASTM A519 Steel Rectangular Tubing contains elements chromium and molybdenum added in its alloy as strengthening agents.
ASTM A519 is a specification that covers seamless and welded carbon and alloy steel mechanical tubing. Specifically, 4130 is a chromium-molybdenum alloy steel known for its strength and toughness, making it a popular choice for various applications, particularly in the aerospace and automotive industries.
ASTM A519 4130 seamless pipe is a highly regarded material in the industry, known for its versatility and superior mechanical properties. It is crucial for applications that require strength and reliability under demanding conditions.
Chromoly is specified by the “SAE” Society of Automotive Engineers. the Alloy elements of 4130 are chromium and molybdenum, this is why its often called chromoly or cromo. Chromoly has an excellent strength to weight ratio, is easily welded and are considerably stronger and harder than standard 1020 mild seamed and DOM tube steels.
The numbers 4130 defines the chemical composition of the steel.
Its performance is much higher than the average of seamless steel tubes, because the steel contains Cr more inside, alloy seamless pipe, its high temperature, low temperature resistance, corrosion resistance is smaller than other seamless.
Especially, it need to do the quenched & tempered and has a high technical requirements. so alloy tube in the petroleum, chemical, electric power, boiler and other industries use more widely.
The 4130 steel tubes are cold-drawn and standardized with an elasticity of somewhere between 85,000 and 110,000 psi. So it’s extended at room temperature to the ideal strength and thickness inside the reach at which the grade 4130 is applied.

4130 chromoly tubing began its first use in the aircraft industry. Race chassis builders began using the tubing for its strength to weight ratio.
4130 tubing is used for anything from bicycle frames, AK-47 receivers, tubular chasis, suspension parts, aircraft parts and air frames etc… Ive used cromo for suspension components, cages / tube chassis and machined parts.
AISI 4130 is a Standard grade Alloy Steel. It is commonly called AISI 4130 Chromium-molybdenum steel. It is composed of (in weight percentage) 0.28-0.33% Carbon (C), 0.40-0.60% Manganese (Mn), 0.035%(max) Phosphorus (P), 0.04%(max) Sulfur (S), 0.15-0.30% Silicon (Si), 0.80-1.10% Chromium (Cr), 0.15-0.25% Molybdenum (Mo), and the base metal Iron (Fe). Other designations of AISI 4130 alloy steel include UNS G41300 and AISI 4130.
Steel is the common name for a large family of iron alloys. Steels can either be cast directly to shape, or into ingots which are reheated and hot worked into a wrought shape by forging, extrusion, rolling, or other processes. Wrought steels are the most common engineering material used, and come in a variety of forms with different finishes and properties. Alloy steels are steels that exceed the element limits for Carbon steels. However, steels containing more than 3.99% chromium are classified differently as stainless and tool steels. Alloy steels also includes steels that contain elements not found in carbon steels such as nickel, chromium (up to 3.99%), cobalt, etc.
The typical elastic modulus of alloy steels at room temperature (25°C) ranges from 190 to 210 GPa. The typical density of alloy steels is about 7.85 g/cm3. The typical tensile strength varies between 758 and 1882 MPa. The wide range of ultimate tensile strength is largely due to different heat treatment conditions.
AISI 4130 steel is a low alloy steel that is used in structural designs that may be found in applications such as aircraft engine mounts or welded tubing. It is well known for its ease of welding and ability to harden in commercial applications. It is commonly referred to as chromium-molybdenum steel.
4130 steel alloy is famous for its strength property when it is used for heat treatment. The importance of this steel is in aircraft manufacturing companies and welding purpose. It has features of both chromium and molybdenum steel alloys.
4130 Steel or Chromoly is a steel alloy made of chromium and molybdenum, containing 0.8 to 1.1% chromium and 0.15 to 0.25% molybdenum. Since 4130 steel is designated as low carbon steel, it offers high ductility, good weldability, and easy machinability.
Knowing that 4130 steel has high strength and weldability, the manufacturers use it for different purposes, such as:
Forging
Do you know that 4130 steel is forged at a temperature ranging from 950 degree Celsius to 1230 degree Celsius? The steel alloy’s grain will become finer if the temperature is on the lower side during forging. While if the temperature is too low, it could affect the uniformity of the whole structure.
Thus, if that happens, it could be necessary to normalise it before heat treating the steel. If you don’t know what the term “forging” means, it is the capability of shaping metals by heating them in fire and hammering after that.
Weldability
The term “weldability” refers to the potential of metals to how easily they can get welded. And when it comes to 4130 steels, they are a breeze to weld owing to their low carbon content.
Machinability
Machinability is any metal’s ability to get cut or shaped effortlessly while offering a smooth surface finish. And if we talk about 4130 steels, it is easy to get machined unless and until it has hardened.

Why the application of alloy steel pipe is wider than others
There are many kinds of materials used for transport in industrial production. Specifically we will have more choices and it is not limited to the use of alloy steel pipe. But even in the face of more choices, many people tend to choose alloy steel pipe. People make their own choices will have their own reasons. This means the alloy steel pipe application has its own advantages. Compared with transmission lines made of other materials, after it meets the basic application requirements, its quantity is lighter. Then in the practical application of alloy steel pipe, it will have more advantages because of this. Besides its physical characteristic advantage, it also has economic advantages. The wide application of alloy steel pipe is with kinds of reasons. So in practical usage, we can exploit the advantages to the full, in this way can we get more profits in these applications of alloy steel pipe.
The transportation of kinds of gases or liquids in production needs to rely on alloy steel pipe. This shows that the actual role of alloy steel pipe application is important. High temperature resistant and low temperature resistant is the tolerance of temperature. In the practical application of alloy steel pipe, there will be many materials need to be transported. However their temperatures are not the same. So this can be the basic requirement to alloy steel pipe. It needs more corrosion resistance. Corrosion resistant material is the best material during transporting, because it is corrosion resistant. So it can be used in more occasions. And it is definitely very convenient for users.

Term | Symbol | Explanation |
---|---|---|
Cold-finished/hard (cold-finished as-drawn) | BK | No heat treatment after the last cold-forming process. The tubes therefore have only low deformability. |
Cold-finished/soft (lightly cold-worked) | BKW | After the last heat treatment there is a light finishing pass (cold drawing) With proper subsequent processing, the tube can be cold-formed (e.g. bent, expanded) within certain limits. |
Annealed | GBK | After the final cold-forming process the tubes are annealed in a controlled atmosphere or under vacuum. |
Normalized | NBK | The tubes are annealed above the upper transformation point in a controlled atmosphere or under vacuum. |

Alloy steels are made by combining carbon steel with one or several alloying elements, such as manganese, silicon, nickel, titanium, copper, chromium and aluminum. These metals are added to produce specific properties that are not found in regular carbon steel. The elements are added in varying proportions (or combinations) making the material take on different aspects such as increased hardness, increased corrosion resistance, increased strength, improved formability (ductility); the weldability can also change.
Commonly used alloying elements and their effects are listed in the table given below.
