Minimal Match — 35% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
EN 10025-3 S460N (EN 10025-3:2019) and ASTM A572 Gr.65 (ASTM A572) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Structural Steel category.
EN 10025-3 S460N 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 10025-3 S460N vs ASTM A572 Gr.65 is a 62.5% match.
As per mechanical properties, the match is 25.9%.
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.
