AWS E385 vs. Grade CZ100 Nickel

AWS E385 belongs to the iron alloys classification, while grade CZ100 nickel belongs to the nickel alloys. They have a modest 28% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 24 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 E385 and the bottom bar is grade CZ100 nickel.
