AWS E310Nb vs. AWS BNi-7

AWS E310Nb belongs to the iron alloys classification, while AWS BNi-7 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 19 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 AWS E310Nb and the bottom bar is AWS BNi-7.
