EN 1.8505 Steel vs. R30155 Cobalt

Both EN 1.8505 steel and R30155 cobalt are iron alloys. They have a modest 33% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 30 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (5, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is EN 1.8505 steel and the bottom bar is R30155 cobalt.
