Chromoly Steel
About Chromoly Steel
Chromoly steel is a type of low alloy steel that gets its name from a combination of the words “chromium” and “molybdenum” – two of the major alloying elements.
Chromoly steel is often used when more strength is required than that of mild carbon steel, though it often comes at an increase in cost.
Chromoly falls under the AISI 41xx designations, and it is important to be aware of the different properties and applications of chromoly steel when deciding which material you need.
