Copper Alloy CC750S vs CC751S

Copper Alloy · grade comparison

Copper Alloy CC750S and CC751S are both copper alloy grades. Both yield at about 90 MPa — strength does not separate them. CC750S is the more ductile: elongation 18% versus 15% for CC751S, and CC751S is harder (20 HRB vs 18 HRB). CC750S is stiffer (95 GPa vs 90 GPa) and CC750S conducts electricity better (26 % IACS vs 20 % IACS).

CC750SChoose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.

CC750S vs CC751S — frequently asked

What is the difference between CC750S and CC751S?

Copper Alloy CC750S and CC751S are both copper alloy grades. Both yield at about 90 MPa — strength does not separate them. CC750S is the more ductile: elongation 18% versus 15% for CC751S, and CC751S is harder (20 HRB vs 18 HRB).

Which is cheaper, CC750S or CC751S?

Both sit in the same relative cost tier ($$$, premium); the part price will be decided by machining time, tolerance and quantity rather than by the material.

When should I choose CC750S over CC751S?

Pick CC750S when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
