R30016 Cobalt vs. EN 1.4527 Stainless Steel

R30016 cobalt belongs to the cobalt alloys classification, while EN 1.4527 stainless steel belongs to the iron alloys. They have a modest 26% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 26 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (11, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is R30016 cobalt and the bottom bar is EN 1.4527 stainless steel.
