It is sometimes used as a 3-limit approximation of [[4:5:6]], but is also used in its own right as a chord with a less stable third.
In [[meantone]] this chord is tempered together with [[4:5:6]]; it may be considered a 3-limit approximation of that chord, or used in its own right as a chord with a less stable third.
