Aluminum 713.0-F vs 713.0-T1
Aluminum · 713.0 temper comparison
713.0-F and 713.0-T1 are two conditions of the same aluminum grade, 713.0: F (as fabricated) versus T1 (cooled from hot working and naturally aged). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. 713.0-T1 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 145 MPa (21 ksi) against 110 MPa (16 ksi) for 713.0-F, about 32% more; tensile strength follows at 205 MPa (29.7 ksi) vs 180 MPa (26.1 ksi). In exchange, 713.0-F is the more ductile: elongation 6% versus 4% for 713.0-T1, and 713.0-T1 is harder (72 HB vs 62 HB).
713.0-FChoose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
713.0-T1Choose it when strength drives the design.
713.0-F vs 713.0-T1: 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.

713.0-F vs 713.0-T1 — frequently asked
Is 713.0-T1 stronger than 713.0-F?
Yes. 713.0-T1 has a typical yield strength of 145 MPa (21 ksi) against 110 MPa (16 ksi) for 713.0-F — about 32% more. Tensile strength is 205 MPa (29.7 ksi) vs 180 MPa (26.1 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, F or T1?
T5 is the default 713.0 condition in the FabDigit quote flow (neither F nor T1). 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, 713.0-F or 713.0-T1?
713.0-T1. Its machinability rates very good (70/100) against good (65/100) for 713.0-F.
