Aluminum 7095-T651 vs 7095-T7351
Aluminum · 7095 temper comparison
7095-T651 and 7095-T7351 are two conditions of the same aluminum grade, 7095: T651 (T6, stress relieved by stretching) versus T7351 (T73, stress relieved by stretching). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. 7095-T651 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 675 MPa (97.9 ksi) against 570 MPa (82.7 ksi) for 7095-T7351, about 18% more; tensile strength follows at 710 MPa (103 ksi) vs 620 MPa (89.9 ksi). In exchange, 7095-T7351 is the more ductile: elongation 12% versus 10% for 7095-T651, and 7095-T651 is harder (190 HB vs 163 HB). 7095-T7351 runs hotter in service (150°C vs 120°C continuous) and 7095-T7351 conducts heat better (160 W/m·K vs 135 W/m·K).
7095-T651Choose it when strength drives the design.
7095-T7351Choose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded, or when the part sees heat.
7095-T651 vs 7095-T7351: 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.
