Copper Alloy C92610-M01 vs C92610-M02
Copper Alloy · C92610 temper comparison
C92610-M01 and C92610-M02 are two conditions of the same copper alloy grade, C92610: M01 (as sand cast) versus M02 (as centrifugally cast). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. C92610-M02 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 155 MPa (22.5 ksi) against 145 MPa (21 ksi) for C92610-M01, about 7% more; tensile strength follows at 300 MPa (43.5 ksi) vs 275 MPa (39.9 ksi). C92610-M02 is harder — 75 HB against 70 HB for C92610-M01 — which matters for wear surfaces and threads.
C92610-M02Choose it when strength drives the design, or when surface hardness matters.
C92610-M01 vs C92610-M02: 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.
