Close Alternative — 80.4% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
GB/T 1299 9CrWMn (GB/T 1299-2014) and IS 1570 (Part 6) T90Mn6WCr2 (IS 1570 (Part 6):1996) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Tool & Die Steels category.
GB/T 1299 9CrWMn is defined under Guobiao Standards (GB/T), originating from China, while IS 1570 (Part 6) T90Mn6WCr2 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, GB/T 1299 9CrWMn vs IS 1570 (Part 6) T90Mn6WCr2 is a 80.4% 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 80.4%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
