Aluminum 1350-H112 vs 1350-H14
Aluminum · 1350 temper comparison
1350-H112 and 1350-H14 are two conditions of the same aluminum grade, 1350: H112 (strain hardened from hot working only) versus H14 (strain hardened, half hard). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. 1350-H14 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 97 MPa (14.1 ksi) against 55 MPa (7.98 ksi) for 1350-H112, about 76% more; tensile strength follows at 110 MPa (16 ksi) vs 90 MPa (13.1 ksi). In exchange, 1350-H112 is the more ductile: elongation 25% versus 9% for 1350-H14, and 1350-H14 is harder (32 HB vs 22 HB). 1350-H112 runs hotter in service (150°C vs 110°C continuous).
1350-H112Choose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded, or when the part sees heat.
1350-H14Choose it when strength drives the design.
1350-H112 vs 1350-H14: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all aluminum grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.
