C91300 Bell Metal vs. CC490K Brass

Both C91300 bell metal and CC490K brass are copper alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have 84% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 26 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (4, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is C91300 bell metal and the bottom bar is CC490K brass.
