Related Material — 66.4% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
EN 10346 S450GD (EN 10346:2015) and AS/NZS 3679.1 350 (AS/NZS 3679.1:2016) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Structural Steel category.
EN 10346 S450GD is typically used for higher-strength continuous hot-dip galvanized structural steel strip/sheet; roll-formed and cold-formed high-strength structural sections, purlins, roofing and cladding requiring corrosion protection, while AS/NZS 3679.1 350 is commonly used for hot-rolled structural bars and sections for primary structural beams, columns, and framing.
EN 10346 S450GD is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while AS/NZS 3679.1 350 is defined under Australian/New Zealand Standard (AS/NZS), originating from Australia/New Zealand.
As per chemical composition, EN 10346 S450GD vs AS/NZS 3679.1 350 is a 99.7% match.
As per mechanical properties, the match is 0%.
Combined, this makes them a related material overall at 66.4%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
