IS 1570 (Part 7) Fe360H vs BS 970 (Part 3) 045M10

Minimal Match — 35% match based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.

IS 1570 (Part 7) Fe360H (IS 1570 (Part 7):1992) and BS 970 (Part 3) 045M10 (BS 970 (Part 3):1991) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Carbon Steel category. IS 1570 (Part 7) Fe360H 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 3) 045M10 is commonly used for bright cold finished bars (cold drawn, turned or precision ground) for general engineering purposes, in straight lengths; case hardening steel, carbon and carbon manganese (table 14). IS 1570 (Part 7) Fe360H is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while BS 970 (Part 3) 045M10 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom.

As per chemical composition, IS 1570 (Part 7) Fe360H vs BS 970 (Part 3) 045M10 is a 65.7% match. Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored. Combined, this makes them a minimal match overall at 35%.
