IS 11169 (Part 1) 35C7S3 vs BS 970 (Part 1) 040A04

Related Material — 69.9% match based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.

IS 11169 (Part 1) 35C7S3 (IS 11169 (Part 1):2022) and BS 970 (Part 1) 040A04 (BS 970 (Part 1):1991) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Carbon Steel category. IS 11169 (Part 1) 35C7S3 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 BS 970 (Part 1) 040A04 is commonly used for as-rolled, or as-rolled and softened, steel (section two). IS 11169 (Part 1) 35C7S3 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while BS 970 (Part 1) 040A04 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom.

As per chemical composition, IS 11169 (Part 1) 35C7S3 vs BS 970 (Part 1) 040A04 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%.
