BS 970 (Part 1) 655H13 vs IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H

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

BS 970 (Part 1) 655H13 (BS 970 (Part 1):1983) and IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H (IS 1570 (Part 7):1992) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Alloy Steel category. BS 970 (Part 1) 655H13 is typically used for case hardening steel supplied to specified hardenability limits (end quench test, table 10)., while IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H 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) 655H13 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom, while IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.

As per chemical composition, BS 970 (Part 1) 655H13 vs IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H is a 60.6% 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%.
