Cold Worked Alloy 360 vs. Ductile Hardened ASTM B540
Cold worked alloy 360 belongs to the nickel alloys classification, while ductile hardened ASTM B540 belongs to the otherwise unclassified metals. There are 22 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (4, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is cold worked alloy 360 and the bottom bar is ductile hardened ASTM B540.
