As Hot Rolled (M20) C11400 Copper

M20 C11400 copper is C11400 copper in the M20 (as hot rolled) condition. It has the highest ductility compared to the other variants of C11400 copper. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare M20 C11400 copper to: wrought coppers (top), all copper alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
