Strong Match — 96.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
ASTM A959 302 (ASTM A959:2011) and IS 5522 X07Cr18Ni9 (IS 5522:2014) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Stainless Steel category.
ASTM A959 302 is typically used for wrought stainless steel products; recommended composition limits for adoption by product standards (clause 1.1), while IS 5522 X07Cr18Ni9 is commonly used for utensils.
ASTM A959 302 is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States, while IS 5522 X07Cr18Ni9 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, ASTM A959 302 vs IS 5522 X07Cr18Ni9 is a 96.9% match.
Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored.
Combined, this makes them a strong match overall at 96.9%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
