AWS E3155 vs. AWS ER120S-1

Both AWS E3155 and AWS ER120S-1 are iron alloys. Both are furnished in the as-welded condition. They have a modest 35% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 22 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (6, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is AWS E3155 and the bottom bar is AWS ER120S-1.
