ASTM A182 Grade F23 vs. AISI W1 Steel
Both ASTM A182 grade F23 and AISI W1 steel are iron alloys. They have a very high 96% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 23 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (10, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is ASTM A182 grade F23 and the bottom bar is AISI W1 steel.
