ASTM Grade HK Steel vs. EN 1.0536 Steel

Both ASTM grade HK steel and EN 1.0536 steel are iron alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have 53% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 30 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (3, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is ASTM grade HK steel and the bottom bar is EN 1.0536 steel.
