Alloy 4027 Yield Strength?

Jun 14, 2004 4 Replies

Can anyone tell me the yield strength of Alloy 4027, which I understand is used for many Craftsman hand tools?


First question is for me... Which tools? :)

Next question is annealed or quenched and at what tempering temperature?

In my Metals Handbook desk edtion I only see 4037, 4042, 4130. Is 4027, in another designation, a HSLA steel?

I don't know the answers to any of these questions.

Well, let's try the next approach: get all of the other data.

Why is the yield strength important? How do you know it is 4027?

I needed it for some design-type calculations and personal edification I'm doing for recreation for an auto repair.
