Material Specification
1. SCOPE
1.1. This specification covers the requirements for AISI 4130 forgings or bar stock. The material shall meet
all the general requirements and test methods specified in MVG010288 (General Requirements for
Forgings or Bars for Bonnets and Bodies per API 6A, PSL 3, NACE MR0175), except as modified herein.
1.2. The specification has restrictive tempering temperature requirements which may be waived per
section 5.3.
1.3. The material is to be ordinarily ordered in the normalized, quenched (austenitized and quenched) and
tempered state. The intent is for the final part to be quenched and tempered. As such, when the
engineering BOM has instructions for rough-out and heat treat, the material will have to be quenched
and tempered again. In such situations, it is conventional and acceptable to order the raw material in
the normalized state, with appropriate quality controls to avoid material mixing.
1.4. The material shall conform to PSL 3 requirements and volumetric NDE is required. Additional PSL 3
requirements may be specified in other engineering documents referenced on the bill of materials
(BOM), as appropriate to the processing of the final part.
1.5. Informational: NOV Design Engineering is responsible for determining mechanical property
requirements for locations where the section thickness may exceed the hardenability characteristics
of the chosen alloy. If required, pre-heat treat rough- machining drawings that ensure that the critical
sections will have the required material properties shall be created and referenced appropriately. Preheat treat rough machining drawings are the responsibility of NOV Design Engineering.

5. MANUFACTURING REQUIREMENTS:
5.1. General:
All materials must be manufactured using the same techniques and processes as were used to
manufacture the originally approved materials. Any deviation in the manufacture of later material
shipments will be cause for a new material approval request through NOV Engineering.

Material Specification
5.3
5.3.1 Unless otherwise specified, the material shall be supplied in the normalized, hardened and
tempered condition. Normalizing shall be performed after the completion of all hot working
operations.
5.3.2 After rough machining, parts shall be austenitized, quenched and tempered per the times and
temperatures listed in the section below to achieve the final specified mechanical properties.
Testing data for the material after re-heat treatment shall be supplied.
5.3.3 Heat treatment temperatures: 4130 shall be heat treated per the times and other
requirements of MVG010288 and at the following temperatures:
5.3.3.1 Normalizing:1650+50F
5.3.3.2 Austenitizing: 1600+50F.
5.3.3.3 Tempering: 1225-1275F.*
* This requirement applies when DNV design codes apply to the job, or for BP applications.
Modified tempering temperature of 1200F minimum is acceptable for other jobs.
6. INSPECTION AND QUALITY REQUIREMENTS:
Requirements shall be according to MVG010288. 100% volumetric NDE is required.
7. CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
Requirements shall be according to MVG010288. EN 10204, type 3.1 minimum certification is required.
