The diagram below indicates the influence of temperature on the strength of
- bronze
- copper
- structural steel
- castings steel
- cast iron
- wrought iron
- stainless steel (304N)
Strength of Metals - SI Units

Strength of Metals - Imperial Units

Example - Strength of Copper at 100 oC
As indicated in the first figure - the strength of copper is reduced to approximately
95 % at 100 oC
With an ultimate tensile strength of 220 MPa for copper - the strength is reduced to
0.95 (220 MPa)
= 209 MPa
