Close Alternative — 84.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
IS 1570 (Part 4) 11C15 (IS 1570 (Part 4):1988) and IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C8 (IS 11169 (Part 1):1984) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Carbon Steel category.
IS 1570 (Part 4) 11C15 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 1570 (Part 4) 11C15 vs IS 11169 (Part 1) 30C8 is a 85.7% 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 84.9%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
