Copper Alloy C90200-M01 vs C90200-M07

Copper Alloy · C90200 temper comparison

C90200-M01 and C90200-M07 are two conditions of the same copper alloy grade, C90200: M01 (as sand cast) versus M07 (as continuous cast). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. C90200-M07 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 145 MPa (21 ksi) against 124 MPa (18 ksi) for C90200-M01, about 17% more; tensile strength follows at 310 MPa (45 ksi) vs 276 MPa (40 ksi). In exchange, C90200-M01 is the more ductile: elongation 30% versus 22% for C90200-M07, and C90200-M07 is harder (70 HB vs 60 HB).

C90200-M01Choose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.

C90200-M07Choose it when strength drives the design.
