Strong Match — 90% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
IS 1570 C30 (IS 1570:1961) and BS 970 EN5C (BS 970:1955) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Carbon Steel category.
IS 1570 C30 is typically used for axles, shafts, gears, connecting rods, machine parts, forgings, while BS 970 EN5C is commonly used for mechanical properties are not part of the contractual obligations of specifications en 5a, en 5b and en 5c..
IS 1570 C30 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while BS 970 EN5C is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom.
As per chemical composition, IS 1570 C30 vs BS 970 EN5C is a 90% match.
Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored.
Combined, this makes them a strong match overall at 90%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
Mechanical properties are not part of the contractual obligations of specifications En 5A, En 5B and En 5C.
Can IS 1570 C30 Be Substituted With BS 970 EN5C?
IS 1570 C30 and BS 970 EN5C overlap closely enough on chemistry and mechanical properties that BS 970 EN5C is often considered as a substitute for IS 1570 C30 in many applications. Always confirm the specific property range your application needs before substituting, and check with your supplier's mill certificate.
What is the difference between IS 1570 C30 and BS 970 EN5C?
Both grades share a similar composition profile; see the specification table above for the exact chemistry and mechanical property values.
