Close Alternative — 73.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
GOST 4543 15H2NM (GOST 4543-2016) and IS 1570 (Part 4) 16Ni6Cr7Mo3 (IS 1570 (Part 4):1988) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Alloy Steel category.
IS 1570 (Part 4) 16Ni6Cr7Mo3 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS) (India).
As per chemical composition, GOST 4543 15H2NM vs IS 1570 (Part 4) 16Ni6Cr7Mo3 is a 73.9% 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 73.9%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
