Strong Match — 91.5% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
IS 3748 XT35Cr5Mo1V3 (IS 3748:1990) and ASTM A681 H11 (ASTM A681:2008) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Tool & Die Steels category.
IS 3748 XT35Cr5Mo1V3 is typically used for hot work tools and dies, such as die-casting dies and hot headers, while ASTM A681 H11 is commonly used for die casting dies, extrusion tooling, forging dies.
IS 3748 XT35Cr5Mo1V3 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while ASTM A681 H11 is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States.
As per chemical composition, IS 3748 XT35Cr5Mo1V3 vs ASTM A681 H11 is a 87.2% match.
As per mechanical properties, the match is 100%.
Combined, this makes them a strong match overall at 91.5%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
