Annealed And Cold Drawn SAE-AISI 1049 vs. Cold-finished SAE-AISI 52100
Both annealed and cold drawn SAE-AISI 1049 and cold-finished SAE-AISI 52100 are iron alloys. Both are furnished in the annealed and cold-drawn condition. They have a very high 98% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 31 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (1, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is annealed and cold drawn SAE-AISI 1049 and the bottom bar is cold-finished SAE-AISI 52100.
