SAE-AISI 1345 Steel vs. S35045 Stainless Steel

Both SAE-AISI 1345 steel and S35045 stainless steel are iron alloys. They have a modest 37% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 30 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 SAE-AISI 1345 steel and the bottom bar is S35045 stainless steel.
