Solder Alloy 711 vs. Solder Alloy 162

Both solder alloy 711 and solder alloy 162 are otherwise unclassified metals. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have 51% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 22 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (2, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is solder alloy 711 and the bottom bar is solder alloy 162.
