Strong Match — 91.5% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
ASTM A681 D2 (ASTM A681:2008) and JIS G4404 SKD11 (JIS G4404:2006) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Tool & Die Steels category.
ASTM A681 D2 is typically used for blanking dies, punches, drawing dies, forming tools, while JIS G4404 SKD11 is commonly used for precision blanking dies, cold forming tools, gauges.
ASTM A681 D2 is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States, while JIS G4404 SKD11 is defined under Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS), originating from Japan.
As per chemical composition, ASTM A681 D2 vs JIS G4404 SKD11 is a 87.2% match.
As per mechanical properties, the match is 100%.
Combined, this makes them a strong match overall at 91.5%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
ASTM A681 D2 specifies P, S which are not specified for JIS G4404 SKD11.
Can ASTM A681 D2 Be Substituted With JIS G4404 SKD11?
ASTM A681 D2 and JIS G4404 SKD11 overlap closely enough on chemistry and mechanical properties that JIS G4404 SKD11 is often considered as a substitute for ASTM A681 D2 in many applications. Always confirm the specific property range your application needs before substituting, and check with your supplier's mill certificate.
