Nickel 333 vs. SAE-AISI D2 Steel

Nickel 333 belongs to the nickel alloys classification, while SAE-AISI D2 steel belongs to the iron alloys. They have a modest 31% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 29 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (3, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is nickel 333 and the bottom bar is SAE-AISI D2 steel.
