Copper Alloy C67500-H04 vs C67500-M10
Copper Alloy · C67500 temper comparison
C67500-H04 and C67500-M10 are two conditions of the same copper alloy grade, C67500: H04 (full hard) versus M10 (as hot forged and air cooled). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. C67500-H04 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 414 MPa (60 ksi) against 207 MPa (30 ksi) for C67500-M10, about 100% more; tensile strength follows at 579 MPa (84 ksi) vs 483 MPa (70.1 ksi). In exchange, C67500-M10 is the more ductile: elongation 30% versus 15% for C67500-H04, and C67500-H04 is harder (180 HB vs 140 HB). C67500-M10 runs hotter in service (200°C vs 180°C continuous).
C67500-H04Choose it when strength drives the design.
C67500-M10Choose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded, or when the part sees heat.
C67500-H04 vs C67500-M10: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all copper alloy 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.

C67500-H04 vs C67500-M10 — frequently asked
Is C67500-H04 stronger than C67500-M10?
Yes. C67500-H04 has a typical yield strength of 414 MPa (60 ksi) against 207 MPa (30 ksi) for C67500-M10 — about 100% more. Tensile strength is 579 MPa (84 ksi) vs 483 MPa (70.1 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, H04 or M10?
H02 is the default C67500 condition in the FabDigit quote flow (neither H04 nor M10). 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, C67500-H04 or C67500-M10?
C67500-H04. Its machinability rates fair (35/100) against poor (30/100) for C67500-M10.
