C97800 Nickel Silver vs. CC382H Copper-nickel

Both C97800 nickel silver and CC382H copper-nickel are copper alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a moderately high 92% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 28 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 C97800 nickel silver and the bottom bar is CC382H copper-nickel.
