1) Remark: Steel C15 is suitable for parts of slightly higher core strength in vehicle and machine engineering, that are predominantly wear loaded (e.g. levers, joints, nuts, gear wheels). Lowest application temperature -25 °C, most favorable application area 5 to 10 mm nominal size. As a bright steel product it is used in the form of bars, bright, straight, in various conditions (see DIN EN 10277 : 1999-10).
