ASTM A387 Grade 22 Steel vs. R30155 Cobalt

Both ASTM A387 grade 22 steel and R30155 cobalt are iron alloys. They have a modest 34% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 30 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (4, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is ASTM A387 grade 22 steel and the bottom bar is R30155 cobalt.
