Close Alternative — 80.9% match
based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.
SAE J404 4047 (SAE J404:2009) and IS 5517 35Mn6Mo3 (IS 5517:1993) are both steel grades.
Both fall under the Alloy Steel category.
SAE J404 4047 is defined under SAE International, originating from United States, while IS 5517 35Mn6Mo3 is defined under Bureau of Indian Standards (IS), originating from India.
As per chemical composition, SAE J404 4047 vs IS 5517 35Mn6Mo3 is a 80.9% match.
Mechanical property data is not available for both grades, so this factor could not be scored.
Combined, this makes them a close alternative overall at 80.9%.
Matched by chemical composition and mechanical properties, not a formal equivalence claim. Always verify against the applicable standard before substitution.
