EN 1.4006 Stainless Steel vs. ASTM B780 Alloy

EN 1.4006 stainless steel belongs to the iron alloys classification, while ASTM B780 alloy belongs to the otherwise unclassified metals. There are 17 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (15, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is EN 1.4006 stainless steel and the bottom bar is ASTM B780 alloy.
