N06455 Nickel vs. ACI-ASTM CD4MCuN Steel

N06455 nickel belongs to the nickel alloys classification, while ACI-ASTM CD4MCuN steel belongs to the iron alloys. They have a modest 25% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 29 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (5, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is N06455 nickel and the bottom bar is ACI-ASTM CD4MCuN steel.
