Strong Match — 97.2% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
EN 10088-1 X5CrNi18-10 (EN 10088-1:2023) and UNI 6900 X5CrNi1810 (UNI 6900:1971) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Stainless Steel category.
EN 10088-1 X5CrNi18-10 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while UNI 6900 X5CrNi1810 is defined under Ente Nazionale Italiano di Unificazione (UNI), originating from Italy.
As per chemical composition, EN 10088-1 X5CrNi18-10 vs UNI 6900 X5CrNi1810 is a 97.2% match.
Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored.
Combined, this makes them a strong match overall at 97.2%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
