SAE-AISI 1536 Steel vs. Nickel 890

SAE-AISI 1536 steel belongs to the iron alloys classification, while nickel 890 belongs to the nickel alloys. They have a modest 26% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 26 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (6, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is SAE-AISI 1536 steel and the bottom bar is nickel 890.
