Common Steel Grades for CNC Machining

Alloy Temp Resistance (°C) Hardness (HB) Cost Common Applications Surface Treatment Limitations Key Features
1018 ~480°C 126–163 $$ Shafts, pins, base plates Requires coating for rust protection Easy to machine, low cost
1020 ~480°C 130–160 $$ Automotive parts, tubes Poor corrosion resistance Good weldability, moderate strength
1025 ~500°C 140–170 $$ Machinery parts, fasteners Needs surface treatment for wear resistance Balance of strength and machinability
1045 ~600°C 180–220 $$$ Gears, bolts, shafts Requires heat treatment for best performance High strength, heat-treatable
1215 ~450°C 130–170 $$ High-speed machining parts Low strength, not suitable for load-bearing Excellent machinability, ideal for mass production
4130 ~650°C 190–240 $$$ Aircraft parts, roll cages Requires skilled heat treatment High toughness, weldable
4140 ~650°C 200–250 $$$ Tooling, molds, axles Needs post-treatment after machining Strong, wear-resistant, heat-treatable
4340 ~700°C 250–300 $$$$ Aerospace, high-load parts Poor machinability when hardened Excellent fatigue & impact resistance
5140 ~620°C 180–230 $$$ Transmission shafts, gears Requires heat treatment Wear resistance, good toughness

Surface Finishes for Steel

steel_polishing
For a high-gloss and mirror-like finish. Commonly used in decorative or sanitary applications.
Not protective, may show scratches easily. SUS304, SUS316, SUS303
steel_black_oxide
Black Oxide
Provides mild corrosion resistance with a matte black appearance.
Not suitable for outdoor/high-humidity environments. 1018, 1045, 1215
steel_zinc_plating
Zinc Plating
Adds corrosion resistance and a bright/silver finish.
Thin coating, not ideal for wear surfaces. 1020, 1045, 5140
steel_nickel_plating
Nickel Plating
Enhances corrosion and wear resistance with decorative appearance.
Increases part cost, requires strict pre-treatment. 1045, 4130, 4340
steel_chrome_plating
Chrome Plating
Adds hardness, wear resistance, and mirror-like finish.
Brittle layer, higher cost, poor on complex shapes. 1045, 4140, 4340
steel_phosphate_coatingsteel_phosphate_coating
Phosphate Coating
Improves paint adhesion and offers mild corrosion protection.
Not decorative; color may vary. 1025, 1045, 5140
steel_powder_coating
Powder Coating
Durable, colorful coating for protection and appearance.
Adds thickness, not suitable for tight-tolerance parts. Most steels, especially 1018, 1045
steel_heat_treatment
Heat Treatment
Enhances hardness, strength, and wear resistance.
Changes internal stress; not a visual finish. 1045, 4140, 4340, 5140
steel_nitriding
Carburizing / Nitriding
Increases surface hardness while keeping the core tough.
Requires special alloy steels and controlled environment. 20Cr, 4130, 5140
