Hot Finished AISI 305 vs. Hot Forged R30035 Cobalt
Hot finished AISI 305 belongs to the iron alloys classification, while hot forged R30035 cobalt belongs to the cobalt alloys. They have a modest 30% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 26 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (8, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is hot finished AISI 305 and the bottom bar is hot forged R30035 cobalt.
