EN 10084 10NiCr5-4 vs BS 970 (Part 1) 637H17

Related Material — 69.1% match based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.

EN 10084 10NiCr5-4 (EN 10084:2008) and BS 970 (Part 1) 637H17 (BS 970 (Part 1):1991) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Alloy Steel category. EN 10084 10NiCr5-4 is typically used for case hardened machine parts: carburized or carbonitrided, then hardened (clause 3.1), while BS 970 (Part 1) 637H17 is commonly used for case hardening steel (section four). EN 10084 10NiCr5-4 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while BS 970 (Part 1) 637H17 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom.

As per chemical composition, EN 10084 10NiCr5-4 vs BS 970 (Part 1) 637H17 is a 69.1% 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 69.1%.
