Copper Alloy C19410-H02 vs C19410-H08

Copper Alloy · C19410 temper comparison

C19410-H02 and C19410-H08 are two conditions of the same copper alloy grade, C19410: H02 (half hard) versus H08 (spring hard). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. C19410-H08 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 490 MPa (71.1 ksi) against 370 MPa (53.7 ksi) for C19410-H02, about 32% more; tensile strength follows at 510 MPa (74 ksi) vs 415 MPa (60.2 ksi). In exchange, C19410-H02 is the more ductile: elongation 8% versus 2% for C19410-H08, and C19410-H08 is harder (146 HB vs 118 HB). C19410-H02 runs hotter in service (200°C vs 170°C continuous). On the shop floor, C19410-H02 welds better (good vs fair).

C19410-H02Choose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded, or when the part sees heat.

C19410-H08Choose it when strength drives the design.

C19410-H02 vs C19410-H08 — frequently asked

Is C19410-H08 stronger than C19410-H02?

Yes. C19410-H08 has a typical yield strength of 490 MPa (71.1 ksi) against 370 MPa (53.7 ksi) for C19410-H02 — about 32% more. Tensile strength is 510 MPa (74 ksi) vs 415 MPa (60.2 ksi).

Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, H02 or H08?

H02 is the default C19410 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, C19410-H02 or C19410-H08?

C19410-H08, by a small margin. Both rate poor for machinability — 28/100 against 22/100 for C19410-H02; for welding the order is C19410-H02 first (good, 55/100) then C19410-H08 (fair, 42/100).
