EN ISO 4957 X30WCrV9-3 vs IS 1570 (Part 6) T140W15Cr2
Related Material — 62.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
EN ISO 4957 X30WCrV9-3 (EN ISO 4957:2018) and IS 1570 (Part 6) T140W15Cr2 (IS 1570 (Part 6):1996) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Tool & Die Steels category.
EN ISO 4957 X30WCrV9-3 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while IS 1570 (Part 6) T140W15Cr2 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, EN ISO 4957 X30WCrV9-3 vs IS 1570 (Part 6) T140W15Cr2 is a 62.9% 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 62.9%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
