Product Description
4140 alloy steel delivers:
High tensile strength
Excellent fatigue resistance
Good ductility and toughness
Strong performance under variable loads
The rod surface undergoes induction hardening, reaching HRC 50–62, significantly improving:
Wear resistance
Bending and impact resistance
Fatigue life under high stress
Resistance to scoring and pitting
The chrome layer offers:
Low surface roughness (Ra ≤ 0.2 μm)
Excellent corrosion protection
Smooth movement inside hydraulic seals
High resistance to abrasion
Manufactured with high-precision equipment to ensure:
Accurate tolerances (f7 / f8 / g6 available)
Excellent straightness
Mirror-like finish
Ideal for applications where repeated heavy loads, high pressure, and harsh environments require strong and durable components.

The rod is engineered for high-demand industries that require superior strength and wear resistance:
Excavators
Loaders
Backhoe machines
Mining hydraulics
Industrial hydraulic presses
Cranes
Bulldozers
Drilling rigs
Tunneling machinery
Harvesters
Log splitters
Tractor hydraulic systems
Forklifts
Aerial platforms
Lifting cranes
Telescopic boom cylinders
Linear actuators
Precision mechanical shafts
High-frequency reciprocating systems

4140 alloy steel offers superior mechanical properties and longer service life.
Resistance to wear
Less bending
Better impact resistance
Improved fatigue strength
Ideal for extreme working conditions.
The uniform chrome layer protects against:
Corrosion
Abrasion
Chemical exposure
Seal wear
The rod resists damage, reducing cylinder repair and replacement frequency.
With high yield strength and a hardened surface, the rod performs reliably in high-pressure hydraulic cylinders.
