I have no idea and apparently on a search on here in 2014 we didn’t know either!
It specifies the alloy used. There used to be a knowledgebase that had all sorts of useful datasheets, but it seems to be gone now.
Try this:
https://www.google.com/search?q=cook...%2Ffiles+alloy
9ct Yellow CY
9ct Yellow DF
9ct White SPW
9ct Red MR
14ct Yellow AY
14ct White WM
14ct White AW
18ct Yellow HB
18ct Yellow KK
18ct Yellow HCB
18ct White SW
18ct White WNC
18ct Red RP
The naming isn't always coherent, but the whites have a W and the reds have an R...

Thank you very much. It would be useful to know what properties all these alloys have so that a good choice can be made when purchasing. I might call Cooksons. Thank you for explaining.
