JIS G4303 SUS310S vs BS 970 (Part 3) 304S11

Related Material — 67.9% match based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.

JIS G4303 SUS310S (JIS G4303:2021) and BS 970 (Part 3) 304S11 (BS 970 (Part 3):1991) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Stainless Steel category. JIS G4303 SUS310S is typically used for furnace parts, heat treatment baskets, kiln components, while BS 970 (Part 3) 304S11 is commonly used for bright cold finished bars (cold drawn, turned or precision ground) for general engineering purposes, in straight lengths; austenitic stainless and heat resisting steel (table 18). JIS G4303 SUS310S is defined under Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS), originating from Japan, while BS 970 (Part 3) 304S11 is defined under British Standards (BS), originating from United Kingdom.

As per chemical composition, JIS G4303 SUS310S vs BS 970 (Part 3) 304S11 is a 67.9% 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 67.9%.
