    Thanks for the information! When will the next video be out and what will it be focused on?

      No problem, Adam! We are working on aluminum alloys next so we will keep you in the loop. Hoping to get them out in February.

    My chromoly chisels are tough like S7 equivalents. Able to hold a good edge.

    Is that necessary to post heat treatment of a 21.7mm outer dia 3m thick round tube of Chromoly steel 4130 after the welding procedure?, we will use in our electric motorcycle trellis frame.

    I'm curious about the higher grade 4150,4340...(I'm not familiar with the naming conventions) etc alloys and their relation to 4130....tensile strength vs weight and flexibility/rigidity based on the annealing and hardening process.

    I have 2 bycicles with cr-mo frame.... it's unbreakable. One is cr-mo 4130.

    I am building metal detecting shovels. A competitor uses aircraft steel. What grade would you suggest. Thanks

    • @onlinemetals

      That is a great question, where you looking into Chromoly? or are you interested in exploring aircraft steel or aluminum as well. I am no metal detecting shovel specialist, but might be able to lead you in the right direction if you know the distinct features you need.

      Online Metals I need a steel that won’t rust and can be heat treated then tempered.

    • @onlinemetals
      @onlinemetals  4 года назад

      @@DIGOLOGIST our experts are saying that tool steels are going to be the best option (4140, 4130, or O1) we offer. That said, Manganese steel is like the Cadillac of shovel steel because of its strength and abrasion resistance, but we don't stock that currently.

    I've seen many arguments about which steel is better for sockets, CrMo or Cr-V. What is your opinion?

    • @onlinemetals
      @onlinemetals  4 года назад +1

      Great question! The answer is either one, once heat treated to similar hardnesses they are practically the same. They have almost identical mechanical properties once hardened. It’s like arguing over which skittle color is better. Other than the color they actually taste exactly the same.

      @@onlinemetals Thank you for your reply. Tekton tools agrees with you but there have been heated arguments for years on the forums saying otherwise. Most people believe that CrMo is best, perhaps because it costs more, but I'm sure that there are different qualities of steel and different hardening methods that really determine which is best.

    can 520 and 4130 chromoly be sanded or polished to look chrome or no?

    • @onlinemetals
      @onlinemetals  4 года назад

      Hi There, 4130 and 520 can be polished but they won't be quite as bright a s a chrome finish. The steel is darker by nature.

      Yes, that is a chromoly alloy steel!

    Great channel! I am a recent subscriber, and really enjoy your summary videos.
    I have a suggestion. What are the best alloy candidates for the high temperature liquid floride salt reactors being considered for thorium? I’ve heard that China recently had the first functioning high temperature fluoride salt loop. I’m assuming it’s a high nickel alloy? It should be a very interesting video to research and watch. Thx.

      Thank you, Ralph. Really interesting topic. We will definitely have a deeper discussion on if this makes sense, but really appreciate the request!

      A new alloy was approved and is ideal for molten salt reactors: Alloy 617 and is a combination of nickel, chromium, cobalt and molybdenum.

    I'm a sheet metal worker and I want to make a toolbox out of chromoly sheets. I can imagine chromoly sheets being way stronger than heavy mild steel junk I have lying around my house.

    • @onlinemetals
      @onlinemetals  4 года назад

      Yes sir! Chromoly has a significant strength advantage over mild steel in both tensile strength and yield strength.
