ASTM A182 Grade F36 vs. Grey Cast Iron

Both ASTM A182 grade F36 and grey cast iron are iron alloys. They have a moderately high 94% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 30 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 ASTM A182 grade F36 and the bottom bar is grey cast iron.
