Related Material — 69.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
IS 6603 X01Cr25Ni22Mo2 (IS 6603:2024) and ASTM A959 316LN (ASTM A959:2011) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Stainless Steel category.
IS 6603 X01Cr25Ni22Mo2 is typically used for general purposes, semi-finished products, bars, wire rods and bright bars, while ASTM A959 316LN is commonly used for wrought stainless steel products; recommended composition limits for adoption by product standards (clause 1.1).
IS 6603 X01Cr25Ni22Mo2 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India, while ASTM A959 316LN is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States.
As per chemical composition, IS 6603 X01Cr25Ni22Mo2 vs ASTM A959 316LN is a 71.6% 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.
