With the development of high-strength materials, the existing fatigue strength formulae cannot satisfactorily describe the relation between fatigue strength sigma(w) and tensile strength sigma(b) of metallic materials with a wide range of strength. For a simple but more precise prediction, the tensile and fatigue properties of SAE 4340 steel with the tensile strengths ranging from 1290 MPa to 2130 MPa obtained in virtue of different tempering temperatures were studied in this paper. Based on the experimental results of SAE 4340 steel and numerous other data available (conventional and newly developed materials), through introducing a sensitive factor of defects P, a new universal fatigue strength formula sigma(w)=sigma(b)(C-P.sigma(b)) was established for the first time. Combining the variation tendency of fatigue crack initiation sites and the competition of defects, the fatigue damage mechanisms associated with different tensile strengths and cracking sites are explained well. The decrease in the fatigue strength at high-strength level can be explained by fracture mechanics and attributed to the transition of fatigue cracking sites from surface to the inner inclusions, resulting in the maximum fatigue strength sigma(max)(w) at an appropriate tensile strength level. Therefore, the universal fatigue strength formula cannot only explain why many metallic materials with excessively high strength do not display high fatigue strength, but also provide a new clue for designing the materials or eliminating the processing defects of the materials.
