Hi all!!!
I´m trying to make a replacement of a power drill (see item on attached file). The last item broke it by torsion action, I´m thinking to make this new item on 4140T but I do not know if it is necessary to make a heat treating to this item. I pretend to use 4140T in order that this item will not fail and also I´m using 4140T in order to not to make it a heat treating. If the item were gonna be made of 1018 or 1045, it´d need a heat treating but how it is 4140T, It is not necessary (I think)...
what do you think?
