Stainless Steel 1.4567 +AT vs 1.4567 +C700
Stainless Steel · 1.4567 temper comparison
1.4567 +AT and 1.4567 +C700 are two conditions of the same stainless steel grade, 1.4567: +AT (solution annealed) versus +C700 (cold drawn to tensile class 700 MPa). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. 1.4567 +C700 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 450 MPa (65.3 ksi) against 210 MPa (30.5 ksi) for 1.4567 +AT, about 114% more; tensile strength follows at 670 MPa (97.2 ksi) vs 520 MPa (75.4 ksi). In exchange, 1.4567 +AT is the more ductile: elongation 55% versus 25% for 1.4567 +C700, and 1.4567 +C700 is harder (200 HB vs 150 HB).

1.4567 +C700Choose it when strength drives the design.
1.4567 +AT vs 1.4567 +C700: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all stainless steel 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.
