Solder Alloy 704 vs. Solder Alloy 702

Both solder alloy 704 and solder alloy 702 are otherwise unclassified metals. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a very high 98% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 22 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (1, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is solder alloy 704 and the bottom bar is solder alloy 702.
