Related Material — 65% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
GOST 1050 35 (GOST 1050-2013) and BS 970 (Part 3) 635M15 (BS 970 (Part 3):1991) are both steel grades.
GOST 1050 35 is classified under Carbon Steel, while BS 970 (Part 3) 635M15 is classified under Alloy Steel — a different category, which is worth noting alongside the chemistry match below.
GOST 1050 35 is typically used for shafts, axles, connecting rods, forgings, gears, machine parts, while BS 970 (Part 3) 635M15 is commonly used for bright cold finished bars (cold drawn, turned or precision ground) for general engineering purposes, in straight lengths; alloy case hardening steel (table 15).
BS 970 (Part 3) 635M15 is defined under British Standards (BS) (United Kingdom).
As per chemical composition, GOST 1050 35 vs BS 970 (Part 3) 635M15 is a 66.3% 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 65%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
