The word GOST (Russian: ГОСТ) is an acronym for gosudarstvennyy standart (Russian:государственный стандарт), which means state standard. The GOST standards carry a two-part number, the first of which is a serial number, and the second, to indicate the year of issue, i.e., GOST 1577-70.
GOST standards were originally developed by the government of the Soviet Union as part of its national standardization strategy. Below is a list of GOST standards covering the following material categories:
- Irons
- Structural and Constructional Steels
- Stainless Steels
- Castings
- Forgings
- Coated Steels
- Welding and Filler materials
- Powder Metallurgy/Sintered Materials
For more information on the GOST designation system see Introduction to the GOST Standard Designation System.
The list of standards below cover a wide range of materials and applications a few of which are:
- Continuously rolled sheet steel with paint coating for building applications
- Various hot and cold rolled temperature resistant steels
- A range of zinc coated wires for cable production
