'The only way to be sure is to take an old one to a materials lab and have it tested.  I did that for the tail wheel oleo on my 37 H model and they determined that it was heat treated to 160 KSI. They actually didn't even charge me for the testing.  They were glad to get something out of the ordinary to test.
