C94100 Bronze vs. CC496K Bronze

Both C94100 bronze and CC496K bronze are copper alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a very high 97% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 26 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (3, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is C94100 bronze and the bottom bar is CC496K bronze.
