50Cr-50Ni-Cb Alloy vs. Solder Alloy 401

Both 50Cr-50Ni-Cb alloy and solder alloy 401 are otherwise unclassified metals. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. There are 17 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (11, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is 50Cr-50Ni-Cb alloy and the bottom bar is solder alloy 401.
