I think you're looking at two separate terms.
SAE 4140 steel is a Chromium-Molybdenum steel used extensively for axles, aerospace concerns, and firearm manufacture.
Mild steel is a catch-all term for plain carbon steel of low carbon content (such as SAE 1018) which is generally cheap, not heat-treatable, and used for fairly low-strain applications.
I hope that helps.

Mild steel, not copper.
steel is the alloy of iron and carbon , so mild steel is an ferrous alloy
Iron is the pure element, mild steel, or any steel is iron with a little bit of carbon added. The iron becomes mild steel, steel or any other type of steel depending on how much carbon is added to the iron.
steel it self means the carbon percentage and according to which we have to specify them. mild steel contain low C% nearly 0.3-0.6% is called mild steel. stainless steel having higher C%&Cr is added to not corde
yes mild steel comes in strips rather than blocks
It's a misnomer. 4140 is a type of steel, which is NOT stainless.
The weight of 4140 steel varies depending on the form and dimensions of the material. On average, the density of 4140 steel is around 0.283 lb/in³. Therefore, to calculate the weight of a specific piece of 4140 steel, you would need to know its dimensions and then use the density to calculate the weight.
The cost of 4140 steel can vary depending on factors such as quantity, supplier, and market conditions. On average, the price for 4140 steel can range from $1.50 to $3 per pound. It's recommended to contact steel suppliers directly for the most up-to-date pricing information.

mild steel is heavier
Mild steel, not copper.
Mild steel
No, mild steel is low carbon steel with no other alloys.
Mild Steel aesthetics could be sh
Yes. It is considered "Mild" Steel due to the low amount of carbon in the steel.
