Value Collection DB06.0X12 4140P Steel Round Rod

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION DB06.0X12 is a hot-rolled 4140P alloy steel round rod measuring 6 inches in diameter and 12 inches in length. 4140P is a chromium-molybdenum alloy steel known for its high tensile strength, toughness, and resistance to fatigue and abrasion. The hot-rolled condition provides a scaled surface finish typical of stock-ready industrial bar stock. This rod is used by machinists, fabricators, and tool-and-die shops as raw material for shafts, gears, bolts, flanges, and other precision-machined components requiring a strong, wear-resistant alloy grade.

This round rod is suited for general industrial fabrication, machine shop operations, and manufacturing environments where a high-strength alloy steel blank is required. The 6-inch diameter and 12-inch length make it appropriate for large-diameter turned parts, heavy-duty tooling fixtures, or as a starting blank for press components and die shoes. It is typically processed on a lathe, mill, or horizontal band saw before final use.

Key Features

• 4140P chromium-molybdenum alloy steel for high strength and toughness
• Hot-rolled condition — standard mill finish, ready for machining
• 6-inch diameter provides substantial cross-section for large-part blanks
• 12-inch length suits single-piece turned or milled components
• Weighs approximately 102.92 pounds — suitable for heavy-duty fabrication applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose alloy steel round rod blank for industrial machining and fabrication applications requiring 4140P grade material in a 6-inch diameter, 12-inch length form factor.

Installation Notes

Handling a 102.92-pound bar stock section requires appropriate lifting equipment or a minimum two-person lift to avoid injury. Secure the workpiece firmly in a lathe chuck or mill vise before cutting or turning operations. Always use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when cutting or machining steel bar stock. Consult applicable OSHA and shop-safety standards for safe handling of heavy round stock.
