Related Material — 69.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
IS 5517 46V1S3 (IS 5517:1993) and IS 11169 (Part 1) 20C10BT (IS 11169 (Part 1):2022) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Alloy Steel category.
IS 5517 46V1S3 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while IS 11169 (Part 1) 20C10BT is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, IS 5517 46V1S3 vs IS 11169 (Part 1) 20C10BT is a 72.1% 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.
