EN 2.4815 Cast Nickel vs. EN 2.4680 Cast Nickel

Both EN 2.4815 cast nickel and EN 2.4680 cast nickel are nickel alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have 64% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 27 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 EN 2.4815 cast nickel and the bottom bar is EN 2.4680 cast nickel.
