ISO 2339 is the standard cited for taper pins. This page sets out what the standard controls for this part, reproduces the dimensional table supplied against it, and notes the related designations referenced on drawings.
ISO 2339 — Scope
ISO 2339 specifies the dimensional requirements for taper pins. Material, surface condition and any performance rating are set by separate documents specific to this part family — ISO 898-1 and ISO 898-2, which govern bolt and nut property classes, do not apply here.
Tolerance & Product Grades
Tolerances for taper pins are given as limits on the individual dimensions in the table rather than as a fastener product grade. Where a general-tolerance class is cited on the drawing instead, it applies to the dimensions not otherwise toleranced.

Companion Standards
ISO 2339 controls only the geometry of taper pins. Surface finish is governed by separate finish standards (for example ISO 4042 for electroplating), and corrosion testing by ISO 9227 (neutral salt spray). Mechanical performance is set by the standards specific to this part family, not by ISO 898-1 or ISO 898-2, which apply to bolts, screws and nuts.
When to Specify ISO 2339
Choose ISO 2339 for international engineering work and OEM supply where ISO standards are the contractual reference. It is the default modern specification for taper pins.
