When you need to purchase aluminum plates, you must tell the specifications you need to aluminum plate manufacturers , like specification, equivalent etc,The same type of aluminum temper state is not the same performance will be different, like the aluminum plate 1050 with different temper: H12 / H14 / H1 / H18 / H32 / H34 / H36 / H38ect, what is the mean of it?
Let us to see together.
“H” temper-non-heat-treatable alloys / strain-hardened
H14 – Strain hardened (cold worked) without thermal treatment and 1/2 hard.
H22 – Strain hardened and partially annealed, 1/4 hard.
H32 – Strain hardened and stabilized by low temperature heating, 1/4 hard.
H34 – Strain hardened and stabilized by low temperature heating, 1/2 hard.
H111 – Applies to products which are strain-hardened less than the amount required for a controlled H11 temper.
H112 – Applies to products which acquire some temper from shaping processes not having special control over the amount of strain-hardening or thermal treatment, but for which there are mechanical property limits
H116 – Applies to products manufactured from alloys in the 5xxx series, for which the magnesium content is 3% nominal or more.
