Copper Alloy CC750S vs CC753S
Copper Alloy · grade comparison
Copper Alloy CC750S and CC753S are both copper alloy grades. CC753S is the stronger of the two: yield strength 150 MPa (21.8 ksi) against 90 MPa (13.1 ksi) for CC750S, about 67% more; tensile strength follows at 320 MPa (46.4 ksi) vs 210 MPa (30.5 ksi). CC753S is harder — 80 HB against 55 HB for CC750S — which matters for wear surfaces and threads. CC750S conducts heat better (115 W/m·K vs 100 W/m·K).
CC753SChoose it when strength drives the design, or when surface hardness matters.
CC750S vs CC753S: 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.

CC750S vs CC753S — frequently asked
Is CC753S stronger than CC750S?
Yes. CC753S has a typical yield strength of 150 MPa (21.8 ksi) against 90 MPa (13.1 ksi) for CC750S — about 67% more. Tensile strength is 320 MPa (46.4 ksi) vs 210 MPa (30.5 ksi).
Which is cheaper, CC750S or CC753S?
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.
Which is easier to machine, CC750S or CC753S?
CC750S. Its machinability rates excellent (85/100) against very good (80/100) for CC753S; for welding the order is CC753S first (poor, 25/100) then CC750S (poor, 20/100).
