Steel SUP10 Hot Rolled vs SUP10 Normalized
Steel · SUP10 temper comparison
SUP10 Hot Rolled and SUP10 Normalized are two conditions of the same steel grade, SUP10: Hot Rolled versus Normalized. The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. SUP10 Normalized is the stronger of the two: yield strength 660 MPa (95.7 ksi) against 560 MPa (81.2 ksi) for SUP10 Hot Rolled, about 18% more; tensile strength follows at 1,000 MPa (145 ksi) vs 900 MPa (131 ksi). SUP10 Normalized is harder — 300 HB against 260 HB for SUP10 Hot Rolled — which matters for wear surfaces and threads.
SUP10 NormalizedChoose it when strength drives the design, or when surface hardness matters.
SUP10 Hot Rolled vs SUP10 Normalized: 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.

SUP10 Hot Rolled vs SUP10 Normalized — frequently asked
Is SUP10 Normalized stronger than SUP10 Hot Rolled?
Yes. SUP10 Normalized has a typical yield strength of 660 MPa (95.7 ksi) against 560 MPa (81.2 ksi) for SUP10 Hot Rolled — about 18% more. Tensile strength is 1,000 MPa (145 ksi) vs 900 MPa (131 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, Hot Rolled or Normalized?
Annealed is the default SUP10 condition in the FabDigit quote flow (neither Hot Rolled nor Normalized). 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.
Which welds better, SUP10 Hot Rolled or SUP10 Normalized?
SUP10 Hot Rolled. Its weldability rates poor (30/100) against poor (25/100) for SUP10 Normalized.
