Minimal Match — 35% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
EN 10025-2 E360 (EN 10025-2:2019) and ASTM A572 Gr.65 (ASTM A572) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Structural Steel category.
EN 10025-2 E360 is typically used for hot rolled products of structural steels, while ASTM A572 Gr.65 is commonly used for used for bridges, buildings, transmission towers, construction equipment, offshore structures, and structural members..
EN 10025-2 E360 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while ASTM A572 Gr.65 is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States.
As per chemical composition, EN 10025-2 E360 vs ASTM A572 Gr.65 is a 76.2% match.
As per mechanical properties, the match is 2.4%.
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.
