Grade TDCrV Steel vs. ASTM Grade LC2-1 Steel

Both grade TDCrV steel and ASTM grade LC2-1 steel are iron alloys. They have a very high 95% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 26 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (6, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is grade TDCrV steel and the bottom bar is ASTM grade LC2-1 steel.
