IS 11169 (Part 1) 41Cr2Ni2Mo2 vs SAE J404 8740

Close Alternative — 84.8% match based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.

IS 11169 (Part 1) 41Cr2Ni2Mo2 (IS 11169 (Part 1):2022) and SAE J404 8740 (SAE J404:2000) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Alloy Steel category. IS 11169 (Part 1) 41Cr2Ni2Mo2 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 SAE J404 8740 is commonly used for chemistry-only alloy steel grade; see the composition notes for product scope. IS 11169 (Part 1) 41Cr2Ni2Mo2 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while SAE J404 8740 is defined under SAE International, originating from United States.

As per chemical composition, IS 11169 (Part 1) 41Cr2Ni2Mo2 vs SAE J404 8740 is a 84.8% 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 84.8%.
