Strong Match — 86.1% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C7 (IS 11169 (Part 1):2022) and IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C8 (IS 11169 (Part 1):1984) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Carbon Steel category.
IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C7 is typically used for cold heading and cold extrusion of parts that are quenched and tempered; the standard covers bars, wire rods and wires of 2 to 100 mm (clause 1.1, annex c), while IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C8 is commonly used for cold heading and cold extrusion; the standard covers wires, wire rods and bars of 2 to 100 mm diameter (clause 1.1).
IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C7 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C8 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C7 vs IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C8 is a 86.1% match.
Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored.
Combined, this makes them a strong match overall at 86.1%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
