Material Description

Material Number Material Name Material Number (single) Standard Scope Standard Status Country Predecessor Successor VDA 231-106 classification
1.1141 (DIN EN ISO 683-3 : 2019-04) C15E 1.1141 DIN EN ISO 683-3 : 2019-04 DIN EN ISO 683-3 : 2019-04 replaced by DIN EN ISO 683-3 : 2022-06 Replaced Germany C15E C15E 1.1.1 1)
1) Remark: Steel C15E is suitable for parts of slightly higher core strength, increased wear strain as well as of higher dimension and complexer form than standard mark C15 in vehicle manufacturing and machine engineering (e.g. levers, joints, gear wheels).
