I’m looking to purchase small-ish sheets (12in x 12in would be more than large enough) of Normalized 4130 to use for yokes in both .25 & .125in thicknesses. I have checked all the normal places like Aircraft Spruce etc. and everything seems super expensive. Any recommendations on places to purchase? I’m located in the US

McMaster has just about everything. It’s more expensive for any given item, but if you just need a little of something it generally is worth it. The link below will take you directly to the 4130 sheet page. Scroll down to find what you’re looking for. The filters are helpful to narrow your search.

Thanks, I guess I just need to bite the bullet & spend the $160 for two sheets. Or do you think annealed would be ok for a chainstay yoke?
Found this as another option- 4130 Chromoly Plate – The Chassis Shop
Yes, should be more than strong enough.

Might be cheaper if it’s low volume to just get laser cut blanks even if you plan to machine them
