Minimal Match — 35% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
BS 970 (Part 3) 304S15 (BS 970 (Part 3):1991) and GOST 5632 06Kh23N28 (GOST 5632-2014) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Stainless Steel category.
BS 970 (Part 3) 304S15 is typically used for bright cold finished bars (cold drawn, turned or precision ground) for general engineering purposes, in straight lengths; austenitic stainless and heat resisting steel (table 18), while GOST 5632 06Kh23N28 is commonly used for furnace components, heat exchangers, high temperature applications.
BS 970 (Part 3) 304S15 is defined under British Standards (BS) (United Kingdom).
As per chemical composition, BS 970 (Part 3) 304S15 vs GOST 5632 06Kh23N28 is a 69.9% 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%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
