SAE-AISI T1 Steel vs. N06230 Nickel

SAE-AISI T1 steel belongs to the iron alloys classification, while N06230 nickel belongs to the nickel alloys. They have a modest 20% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 21 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (10, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is SAE-AISI T1 steel and the bottom bar is N06230 nickel.
