Sandvik 15R10 is an austenitic chromium-nickel (CrNi) stainless steel used as a base material for Sandvik coated strip steel. The product is particularly suited to many types of electric load carrying spring applications, such as contact springs and tactile domes.

Sandvik 15R10 is characterized by good corrosion resistance, mechanical strength and excellent fatigue and relaxation properties, as well as superior contact properties and/or solderability, achieved through the right choice of coating layer.

Applications
Sandvik Santronic 15R10 is a suitable material for high strength components that require electronic conduction on or close to the surface. Typical applications include contact springs, tactile domes and various EMC shielding components, such as fingerstocks and shielding boxes.
