Strong Match — 90.7% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
JIS G4304 SUS317LN (JIS G4304:2021) and ASTM A240/A240M S31753 (ASTM A240/A240M:2025) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Stainless Steel category.
JIS G4304 SUS317LN is typically used for hot-rolled stainless steel plates and strips, while ASTM A240/A240M S31753 is commonly used for pressure vessels and general applications (plate, sheet and strip).
JIS G4304 SUS317LN is defined under Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS), originating from Japan, while ASTM A240/A240M S31753 is defined under ASTM International, originating from United States.
As per chemical composition, JIS G4304 SUS317LN vs ASTM A240/A240M S31753 is a 98.6% match.
As per mechanical properties, the match is 75%.
Combined, this makes them a strong match overall at 90.7%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
