ASTM A372 Grade L Steel vs. Grade 200 Maraging Steel

Both ASTM A372 grade L steel and grade 200 maraging steel are iron alloys. They have 72% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 24 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 A372 grade L steel and the bottom bar is grade 200 maraging steel.
