BS 970 (Part 1) 316S31 vs IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH

Minimal Match — 35% match based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.

BS 970 (Part 1) 316S31 (BS 970 (Part 1):1983) and IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH (IS 1570 (Part 7):1992) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Stainless Steel category. BS 970 (Part 1) 316S31 is typically used for austenitic stainless and heat resisting steel for mechanical and allied engineering purposes (table 14, with table 15 for the cold drawn condition)., 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. BS 970 (Part 1) 316S31 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom, while IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.

As per chemical composition, BS 970 (Part 1) 316S31 vs IS 1570 (Part 7) 11Cr17Ni13W3TiH is a 58.7% match. Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored. Combined, this makes them a minimal match overall at 35%.
