Steel 1113-ANN vs 1113 NORM
Steel · 1113 temper comparison
1113-ANN and 1113 NORM are two conditions of the same steel grade, 1113: ANN (annealed) versus NORM (normalized). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. 1113 NORM is the stronger of the two: yield strength 250 MPa (36.3 ksi) against 225 MPa (32.6 ksi) for 1113-ANN, about 11% more; tensile strength follows at 430 MPa (62.4 ksi) vs 395 MPa (57.3 ksi). In exchange, 1113-ANN is the more ductile: elongation 30% versus 27% for 1113 NORM, and 1113 NORM is harder (126 HB vs 111 HB).
1113-ANNChoose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
1113 NORMChoose it when strength drives the design.
1113-ANN vs 1113 NORM: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all 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.

1113-ANN vs 1113 NORM — frequently asked
Is 1113 NORM stronger than 1113-ANN?
Yes. 1113 NORM has a typical yield strength of 250 MPa (36.3 ksi) against 225 MPa (32.6 ksi) for 1113-ANN — about 11% more. Tensile strength is 430 MPa (62.4 ksi) vs 395 MPa (57.3 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, ANN or NORM?
CD is the default 1113 condition in the FabDigit quote flow (neither ANN nor NORM). The other condition is available on request or by drawing note — specify it in the material field or the part notes and the quote is priced for it.
When should I choose 1113-ANN over 1113 NORM?
Pick 1113-ANN when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded. Pick 1113 NORM when strength drives the design.
