Related Material — 57.2% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
ASME SA105 (ASME BPVC.II.A-2025 SA-105/SA-105M) and EN 10025-2 E295 (EN 10025-2:2019) are both steel grades.
ASME SA105 is classified under Carbon Steel, while EN 10025-2 E295 is classified under Structural Steel — a different category, which is worth noting alongside the chemistry match below.
ASME SA105 is typically used for pressure vessel flanges, boiler fittings, valves, piping components requiring asme certification, while EN 10025-2 E295 is commonly used for hot rolled products of structural steels.
EN 10025-2 E295 is defined under European Standard (EN) (Europe).
As per chemical composition, ASME SA105 vs EN 10025-2 E295 is a 85.8% match.
As per mechanical properties, the match is 0%.
Combined, this makes them a related material overall at 57.2%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
