AWS BCo-1 vs. EN 2.4815 Cast Nickel

AWS BCo-1 belongs to the cobalt alloys classification, while EN 2.4815 cast nickel belongs to the nickel alloys. They have a modest 35% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 18 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (12, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is AWS BCo-1 and the bottom bar is EN 2.4815 cast nickel.
