AISI 4330V Alloy Steel

AISI 4330 V is a chromium, nickel, molybdenum, vanadium high strength low alloyed steel suitable for downhole tools and drilling jars. It offers improved hardenability and the ability to achieve higher tensile strengths and impact. With its lower carbon content it has better welding characteristics than AISI 4145. AISI 4330V is commonly supplied quenched and tempered with a hardness of between 35 to 39HRc.
