Close Alternative — 71% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
BS 970 (Part 1) 832H13 (BS 970 (Part 1):1983) and BS 970 (Part 1) 835M15 (BS 970 (Part 1):1983) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Alloy Steel category.
BS 970 (Part 1) 832H13 is typically used for case hardening steel supplied to specified hardenability limits (end quench test, table 10)., while BS 970 (Part 1) 835M15 is commonly used for case hardening steel for mechanical and allied engineering purposes (table 11 mechanical properties)..
BS 970 (Part 1) 832H13 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom, while BS 970 (Part 1) 835M15 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom.
As per chemical composition, BS 970 (Part 1) 832H13 vs BS 970 (Part 1) 835M15 is a 71% match.
Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored.
Combined, this makes them a close alternative overall at 71%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
