Related Material — 55.4% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
ASTM A959 S41428 (ASTM A959:2011) and IS 11169 (Part 1) 15Ni5Cr4Mo1 (IS 11169 (Part 1):2022) are both steel grades.
ASTM A959 S41428 is classified under Stainless Steel, while IS 11169 (Part 1) 15Ni5Cr4Mo1 is classified under Alloy Steel — a different category, which is worth noting alongside the chemistry match below.
ASTM A959 S41428 is typically used for wrought stainless steel products; recommended composition limits for adoption by product standards (clause 1.1), while IS 11169 (Part 1) 15Ni5Cr4Mo1 is commonly used for cold heading and cold extrusion of parts that are case hardened; the standard covers bars, wire rods and wires of 2 to 100 mm (clause 1.1, annex b).
ASTM A959 S41428 is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States, while IS 11169 (Part 1) 15Ni5Cr4Mo1 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, ASTM A959 S41428 vs IS 11169 (Part 1) 15Ni5Cr4Mo1 is a 55.4% 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 55.4%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
