Close Alternative — 79.3% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
IS 1570 (Part 3) 14C14S14 (IS 1570 (Part 3):1979) and SAE J403 1117 (SAE J403:2001) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Free Machining Steel category.
IS 1570 (Part 3) 14C14S14 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while SAE J403 1117 is defined under SAE International, originating from United States.
As per chemical composition, IS 1570 (Part 3) 14C14S14 vs SAE J403 1117 is a 79.3% 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 79.3%.
Frequently Compared With IS 1570 (Part 3) 14C14S14:
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
