N06200 Nickel vs. AISI 309 Stainless Steel
N06200 nickel belongs to the nickel alloys classification, while AISI 309 stainless steel belongs to the iron alloys. They have a modest 38% 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 (4, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is N06200 nickel and the bottom bar is AISI 309 stainless steel.
