ASTM A182 Grade F5 vs. EN 1.3555 Steel

Both ASTM A182 grade F5 and EN 1.3555 steel are iron alloys. Both are furnished in the annealed condition. They have a moderately high 92% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 24 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (9, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is ASTM A182 grade F5 and the bottom bar is EN 1.3555 steel.
