Nickel Alloy ENiCrCoMo-1 vs ERNiCrCoMo-1
Nickel Alloy · grade comparison
Nickel Alloy ENiCrCoMo-1 and ERNiCrCoMo-1 are both nickel alloy grades. Both yield at about 430 MPa — strength does not separate them. ENiCrCoMo-1 is harder — 210 HB against 185 HB for ERNiCrCoMo-1 — which matters for wear surfaces and threads. On the shop floor, ERNiCrCoMo-1 forms better (good vs fair).

ENiCrCoMo-1 vs ERNiCrCoMo-1: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all nickel alloy grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.

ENiCrCoMo-1 vs ERNiCrCoMo-1 — frequently asked
What is the difference between ENiCrCoMo-1 and ERNiCrCoMo-1?
Nickel Alloy ENiCrCoMo-1 and ERNiCrCoMo-1 are both nickel alloy grades. Both yield at about 430 MPa — strength does not separate them. ENiCrCoMo-1 is harder — 210 HB against 185 HB for ERNiCrCoMo-1 — which matters for wear surfaces and threads.
Which is cheaper, ENiCrCoMo-1 or ERNiCrCoMo-1?
Both sit in the same relative cost tier ($$$$, high); the part price will be decided by machining time, tolerance and quantity rather than by the material.
Which welds better, ENiCrCoMo-1 or ERNiCrCoMo-1?
ENiCrCoMo-1. Its weldability rates excellent (85/100) against very good (80/100) for ERNiCrCoMo-1.
