364.0 Aluminum vs. 4343 Aluminum

Both 364.0 aluminum and 4343 aluminum are aluminum alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a very high 98% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 30 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (1, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is 364.0 aluminum and the bottom bar is 4343 aluminum.
