Related Material — 69.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
EN 10028-2 16Mo3 (EN 10028-2:2017) and EN 10084 18CrNiMo7-6 (EN 10084:2008) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Alloy Steel category.
EN 10028-2 16Mo3 is typically used for flat products for pressure purposes, while EN 10084 18CrNiMo7-6 is commonly used for case hardened machine parts: carburized or carbonitrided, then hardened (clause 3.1).
EN 10028-2 16Mo3 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while EN 10084 18CrNiMo7-6 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe.
As per chemical composition, EN 10028-2 16Mo3 vs EN 10084 18CrNiMo7-6 is a 70.6% match.
Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored.
Combined, this makes them a related material overall at 69.9%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
