As Forged and Air Cooled (M10) C19100 Copper

M10 C19100 copper is C19100 copper in the M10 (as forged and air cooled) condition. It has the highest ductility compared to the other variants of C19100 copper. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare M10 C19100 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.
