Hot Forged R30035 Cobalt vs. Hot Worked Monel K-500
Hot forged R30035 cobalt belongs to the cobalt alloys classification, while hot worked Monel K-500 belongs to the nickel alloys. They have a modest 36% 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 (7, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is hot forged R30035 cobalt and the bottom bar is hot worked Monel K-500.
