Aluminum 1435-H19 vs 1435-O
Aluminum · 1435 temper comparison
1435-H19 and 1435-O are two conditions of the same aluminum grade, 1435: H19 (strain hardened, extra hard) versus O (annealed). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. 1435-H19 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 145 MPa (21 ksi) against 30 MPa (4.35 ksi) for 1435-O, about 4.8 times as much; tensile strength follows at 165 MPa (23.9 ksi) vs 80 MPa (11.6 ksi). In exchange, 1435-O is the more ductile: elongation 38% versus 2.5% for 1435-H19, and 1435-H19 is harder (40 HB vs 20 HB). 1435-O runs hotter in service (200°C vs 100°C continuous). On the shop floor, 1435-H19 machines more easily (fair vs poor).
1435-H19Choose it when strength drives the design, or when the part is machined in volume.
1435-OChoose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded, or when the part sees heat.
1435-H19 vs 1435-O: 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.

1435-H19 vs 1435-O — frequently asked
Is 1435-H19 stronger than 1435-O?
Yes. 1435-H19 has a typical yield strength of 145 MPa (21 ksi) against 30 MPa (4.35 ksi) for 1435-O — about 4.8 times as much. Tensile strength is 165 MPa (23.9 ksi) vs 80 MPa (11.6 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, H19 or O?
O is the default 1435 condition in the FabDigit quote flow. The other condition is available on request or by drawing note — specify it in the material field or the part notes and the quote is priced for it.
Which is easier to machine, 1435-H19 or 1435-O?
1435-H19. Its machinability rates fair (40/100) against poor (20/100) for 1435-O; for welding the order is 1435-O first (excellent, 95/100) then 1435-H19 (excellent, 90/100).
