Alloy steels comprise different kinds of steels having compositions exceeding the limitations of B, C, Mn, Mo, Ni, Si, Cr, and Va set for carbon steels. They are designated by AISI four-digit numbers. AISI 4320 alloy steel has high toughness and strength. It contains low carbon content to achieve good welding characteristics.
