Value Collection DB02.0X72 4140 Steel Round Rod 2in X 6ft

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION DB02.0X72 is a 4140 alloy steel round rod measuring 2 inches in diameter and 6 feet in length, supplied with a hot rolled finish and a pre-hardened heat treatment. This rod is a general-purpose, high-strength bar stock used in machining, fabrication, and structural applications across industrial and trade settings. The 4140 grade delivers strong wear resistance and toughness, making it well suited for demanding load-bearing and mechanical applications. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance professionals commonly work with this material for shafts, pins, tooling fixtures, and custom mechanical components.

This round rod is used in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and maintenance departments where high-strength steel bar stock is required. Its pre-hardened condition allows for immediate machining without additional heat treatment in many applications. The hot rolled finish is standard for raw bar stock intended for further processing, turning, milling, or grinding. It is appropriate for both one-off custom parts and production runs requiring consistent material grade and dimensional accuracy.

Key Features

• 4140 alloy steel grade for high tensile strength and good machinability
• Pre-hardened heat treatment reduces need for additional processing before use
• Hot rolled mechanical finish suitable for machining and fabrication
• 2 inch diameter by 6 foot length provides substantial stock for large-diameter parts
• Single-piece packaging supports individual project procurement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 4140 alloy steel round rod for general machining, fabrication, and industrial maintenance applications requiring pre-hardened bar stock in a 2 inch diameter profile.

Installation Notes

Cutting, turning, and drilling of 4140 pre-hardened alloy steel requires appropriate carbide or high-speed steel tooling rated for hardened material. Secure the rod firmly in a chuck or vise before any machining operation to prevent movement. Follow applicable shop safety standards and use appropriate personal protective equipment when cutting or grinding. Further heat treatment after machining should be performed only by qualified personnel with appropriate equipment.
