It measures 18 inches long by 1 inch wide by 1 inch thick and weighs 5.08 pounds. This material is supplied in a pre-hardened condition, making it ready for applications that require consistent through-hardness without additional heat treatment. Tight dimensional tolerances are held throughout: length tolerance is +0.125 inch, width tolerance is +0.005 inch, thickness tolerance is +0.001 inch, and square tolerance is 0.003 inch. Machinists, toolmakers, and fabricators working in machine shops, maintenance departments, and production environments use this stock for tooling, fixtures, wear parts, and general structural components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAISI\/SAE 4142 is a chromium-molybdenum alloy steel valued for its high strength, good toughness, and machinability in the pre-hardened state. This flat stock is suited for fabrication of dies, jigs, holders, shafts, and machine components in industrial and manufacturing settings. The 18-inch length makes it practical for single-piece or short-run part production. It is appropriate for both light-duty prototyping and heavier production machining where tight tolerances and consistent hardness are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAISI\/SAE Type 4142 chromium-molybdenum alloy steel construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePre-hardened condition  -  no additional heat treatment required before use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLength tolerance of +0.125 inch for consistent stock sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWidth tolerance of +0.005 inch and thickness tolerance of +0.001 inch for close-tolerance machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare tolerance held to 0.003 inch for accurate setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReady for milling, drilling, turning, and grinding operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose pre-hardened flat stock for use in machining, toolmaking, and fabrication applications requiring AISI\/SAE Type 4142 alloy steel material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMachining of pre-hardened 4142 alloy steel should be performed by qualified machinists using appropriate cutting tools rated for hardened steel. Secure the workpiece firmly in a vise or fixture before cutting operations to prevent movement and maintain tolerance. Carbide tooling is typically preferred over high-speed steel when machining pre-hardened stock. Follow applicable shop safety practices including eye protection, chip guards, and proper coolant use during machining operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.08 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: AISI\/SAE Type 4142 Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.125 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.005 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.001 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.003 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31231200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: DRILL ROD TOOL STEELS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 81175069\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DRILL ROD \u0026 TOOL STEELS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972214718770,"sku":"81175069","price":120.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0bd010a1cae711f9686084786dbdb869_624acb1b-4994-4cbe-923a-3acd0cd5b5cf.jpg?v=1789964628","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/drill-rod-tool-steels-81175069-4142-flat-stock-18x1x1","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
