ASTM A182 Grade F5a vs. EN 1.0597 Cast Steel

Both ASTM A182 grade F5a and EN 1.0597 cast steel are iron alloys. Both are furnished in the normalized and tempered condition. They have a moderately high 94% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 29 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (5, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is ASTM A182 grade F5a and the bottom bar is EN 1.0597 cast steel.
