Product Overview

What are AISI 4340 Studs?

AISI 4340 studs are high-strength alloy steel fasteners manufactured from chromium-nickel-molybdenum steel conforming to ASTM A193 Grade B7M or equivalent. This alloy is renowned for its exceptional toughness, fatigue resistance, and high tensile strength, making it ideal for critical bolted connections in demanding environments. AISI 4340 studs are typically supplied quenched and tempered, achieving superior mechanical properties and consistent performance under cyclic loading and elevated temperatures.

These studs are widely specified for pressure vessel closures, high-pressure piping, and structural applications in oil & gas, power generation, and heavy engineering sectors. Full traceability and mechanical certification are provided for every batch, ensuring compliance with international standards and project specifications.

Material Chemistry

AISI 4340 Chemical Composition

AISI 4340 Studs are produced from medium-carbon or alloy steel with carbon (0.15–0.55%), chromium, manganese, and boron additions controlled per ASTM and ISO 898-1. Carbon content and quench-and-temper heat treatment are the primary strength levers, delivering proof loads from 580 MPa (Class 8.8) to 970 MPa (Class 12.9).

Why AISI 4340 Alloy Composition Matters for Studs

Ni (1.65–2.00%) — Toughness & Fatigue Resistance
Nickel content in AISI 4340 provides outstanding toughness and fatigue resistance, making these studs ideal for cyclically loaded and impact-prone connections.
Cr & Mo — Strength & Hardenability
Chromium and molybdenum ensure high tensile strength and deep hardenability, allowing large-diameter studs to achieve uniform properties throughout their cross-section.
Low Impurity Levels
Strict phosphorus and sulfur limits guarantee reliable performance in critical bolted joints, reducing the risk of embrittlement and failure under stress.

Contact our technical team directly for project-specific guidance on AISI 4340 studs selection and pricing.
AISI 4340 studs are supplied to DIN 976 (full thread), DIN 975 (threaded rod), ASME B16.5 (flange studs), and ASME B18.31.2 (continuous thread). Mechanical properties conform to ASTM A193 Grade B7M or A320 L7. Custom thread forms (UNC, UNF, metric fine) and special coatings are available on request.
Use molybdenum-based anti-seize compound (such as Molykote 1000 or Loctite LB 8012) for AISI 4340 studs. Apply to threads and nut faces to prevent galling and ensure accurate preload. Avoid copper-based anti-seize, which can promote galvanic corrosion in high-strength alloy steel applications.
Yes – AISI 4340 studs, when heat treated to ASTM A193 B7M or A320 L7, are suitable for continuous service up to 450°C. For higher temperatures, consult our engineering team for alternative grades or special heat treatments.
No MOQ for standard sizes (M12-M36) available ex-stock – single pieces can be supplied for urgent maintenance. Custom sizes or special coatings may require a 10 kg minimum. Bulk discounts apply at 50, 200, and 500 pieces.
