ISO 15243 is a standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that focuses on the classification and terminology related to gears and gear drives. The standard is intended to help define and categorize various types of gear failures in mechanical systems and provide a clear understanding of the terminology used in the gear industry.

ISO 15243 provides critical terminology and a standardized classification system for gear failure modes. By defining the types of failures that can occur in gears and their underlying causes, this standard helps ensure effective diagnosis, communication, and resolution of gear issues. It supports industries relying on gear systems by offering a structured approach to understanding and managing gear performance and reliability, ultimately contributing to the longevity and safety of gear-driven mechanical systems.
