Close Alternative — 83.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
EN 10088-1 X70CrMo15 (EN 10088-1:2014) and ASTM A959 440A (ASTM A959:2011) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Stainless Steel category.
EN 10088-1 X70CrMo15 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while ASTM A959 440A is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States.
As per chemical composition, EN 10088-1 X70CrMo15 vs ASTM A959 440A is a 83.9% 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 83.9%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
