1350-F Aluminum

1350-F aluminum is 1350 aluminum in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare 1350-F aluminum to: 1000-series alloys (top), all aluminum 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.
