Related Material — 60.5% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
GOST 5950 9HVG (GOST 5950-2000) and IS 1570 (Part 6) T40W8Cr5V2 (IS 1570 (Part 6):1996) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Tool & Die Steels category.
IS 1570 (Part 6) T40W8Cr5V2 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS) (India).
As per chemical composition, GOST 5950 9HVG vs IS 1570 (Part 6) T40W8Cr5V2 is a 60.5% 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 60.5%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
