ASTM A240/A240M S21400 vs IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH
Related Material — 55.3% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
ASTM A240/A240M S21400 (ASTM A240/A240M:2025) and IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH (IS 1570 (Part 7):1992) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Stainless Steel category.
ASTM A240/A240M S21400 is typically used for pressure vessels and general applications (plate, sheet and strip), while IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH is commonly used for boilers, pressure vessels, steam turbines, steam and water piping and other power plant equipment working at elevated temperature.
ASTM A240/A240M S21400 is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States, while IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, ASTM A240/A240M S21400 vs IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH is a 55.3% match.
Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored.
Combined, this makes them a related material overall at 55.3%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
