ACI-ASTM CB7Cu-1 Steel vs. Nickel 59

ACI-ASTM CB7Cu-1 steel belongs to the iron alloys classification, while nickel 59 belongs to the nickel alloys. They have a modest 22% 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 (7, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is ACI-ASTM CB7Cu-1 steel and the bottom bar is nickel 59.
