EN 10083-1 36CrNiMo4 vs IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Cr4Mo2
Close Alternative — 70.7% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
EN 10083-1 36CrNiMo4 (EN 10083-1:1991) and IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Cr4Mo2 (IS 11169 (Part 1):2022) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Alloy Steel category.
EN 10083-1 36CrNiMo4 is typically used for shafts, gears, high strength fasteners, while IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Cr4Mo2 is commonly used for cold heading and cold extrusion of parts that are quenched and tempered; the standard covers bars, wire rods and wires of 2 to 100 mm (clause 1.1, annex c).
EN 10083-1 36CrNiMo4 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Cr4Mo2 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, EN 10083-1 36CrNiMo4 vs IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Cr4Mo2 is a 70.7% 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 70.7%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
