N06210 Nickel vs. AISI 308L Stainless Steel

N06210 nickel belongs to the nickel alloys classification, while AISI 308L stainless steel belongs to the iron alloys. They have a modest 30% 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 (8, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is N06210 nickel and the bottom bar is AISI 308L stainless steel.
