Related Material — 69.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
GOST 4543 12HN3A (GOST 4543-2016) and IS 1570 (Part 4) 15Cr6Ni6 (IS 1570 (Part 4):1988) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Alloy Steel category.
IS 1570 (Part 4) 15Cr6Ni6 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS) (India).
As per chemical composition, GOST 4543 12HN3A vs IS 1570 (Part 4) 15Cr6Ni6 is a 75.2% 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 69.9%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
