EN 1.4805 Stainless Steel vs. R31537 Cobalt

EN 1.4805 stainless steel belongs to the iron alloys classification, while R31537 cobalt belongs to the cobalt alloys. They have a modest 23% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 25 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (9, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is EN 1.4805 stainless steel and the bottom bar is R31537 cobalt.
