Hardened AISI 414 vs. Hardened AISI 422
Both hardened AISI 414 and hardened AISI 422 are iron alloys. Both are furnished in the hardened (H) condition. They have a very high 97% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 33 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (2, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is hardened AISI 414 and the bottom bar is hardened AISI 422.
