As-cast C94700 Bronze vs. As-cast C99400 Brass

Both as-cast C94700 bronze and as-cast C99400 brass are copper alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a moderately high 92% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 26 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 as-cast C94700 bronze and the bottom bar is as-cast C99400 brass.
