Related Material — 69.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H (IS 1570 (Part 7):1992) and BS 970 (Part 1) 720M32 (BS 970 (Part 1):1991) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Alloy Steel category.
IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H is typically used for boilers, pressure vessels, steam turbines, steam and water piping and other power plant equipment working at elevated temperature, while BS 970 (Part 1) 720M32 is commonly used for steel for surface hardening by nitriding (section three).
IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while BS 970 (Part 1) 720M32 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom.
As per chemical composition, IS 1570 (Part 7) 10Mo6H vs BS 970 (Part 1) 720M32 is a 69.9% 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%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
