AISI 321H Stainless Steel vs. ASTM A182 Grade F12 Class 1

Both AISI 321H stainless steel and ASTM A182 grade F12 class 1 are iron alloys. Both are furnished in the annealed condition. They have 72% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 33 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (2, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is AISI 321H stainless steel and the bottom bar is ASTM A182 grade F12 class 1.
