IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Mn6Mo3 vs IS 1570 (Part 7) 16Mo3H

Close Alternative — 71.5% match based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.

IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Mn6Mo3 (IS 11169 (Part 1):2022) and IS 1570 (Part 7) 16Mo3H (IS 1570 (Part 7):1992) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Alloy Steel category. IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Mn6Mo3 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 1570 (Part 7) 16Mo3H is commonly used for boilers, pressure vessels, steam turbines, steam and water piping and other power plant equipment working at elevated temperature. IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Mn6Mo3 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while IS 1570 (Part 7) 16Mo3H is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.

As per chemical composition, IS 11169 (Part 1) 35Mn6Mo3 vs IS 1570 (Part 7) 16Mo3H is a 71.5% 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 71.5%.
