ISO 15510:2014 — Stainless Steel Chemical Composition

Procurement reference for chemical-composition designations covering wrought stainless-steel product forms.

Edition control: Published; Edition 2, last reviewed and confirmed in 2025. This original MNK-G.S.A summary does not reproduce or replace the protected ISO publication. Confirm the current authorised edition and governing order documents before use.

Scope in Procurement

ISO 15510:2014 provides an international composition reference for stainless steels used in wrought product forms, including ingots and semi-finished material.

The list brings together compositions used across several standards systems, but a listed composition is not automatic proof that two designations are interchangeable. Product standard, delivery condition, dimensions and certificate data still govern the order.

MNK-G.S.A uses this reference to structure grade verification, while the current authorised ISO publication and the customer’s governing specification remain controlling.

Material familyStainless steels
Product contextWrought product forms, including ingots and semi-finished material
Procurement roleComposition and designation cross-check
Scope boundaryDoes not establish automatic grade equivalence or product delivery conditions
