Grade M35-2 Nickel vs. Grade M30H Nickel
Both grade M35-2 nickel and grade M30H nickel are nickel alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a very high 97% of their average alloy composition in common.
For each property being compared, the top bar is grade M35-2 nickel and the bottom bar is grade M30H nickel.
