Solder Alloy 402 vs. Solder Alloy 135

Both solder alloy 402 and solder alloy 135 are otherwise unclassified metals. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a modest 30% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 23 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (1, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is solder alloy 402 and the bottom bar is solder alloy 135.
