EN 1.4584 Stainless Steel vs. C75200 Nickel Silver

EN 1.4584 stainless steel belongs to the iron alloys classification, while C75200 nickel silver belongs to the copper alloys. They have a modest 20% 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 (11, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is EN 1.4584 stainless steel and the bottom bar is C75200 nickel silver.
