Default Wipperman Chains on Shimano 10?

Has anyone used a Wipperman chain on Shimano 10 speed with success? The
"regular" Wipperman is advertised as 6.2mm, whereas their Shimano version,
which does not yet seem to be available, is advertised at 6.05mm. Although
..15mm sure doesn't seem like it would be noticeable, I know 10 speed systems
can be quite finicky.

Thanks in advance

I've been using a Wipperman stainless steel 10-speed chain (presumably
the wider non-Shimano specific) for about a year on a Dura-Ace 12-27
10-speed cassette. It runs quiet and shifts smoothly.

Yes, the Mavic/Wipperman 10s chain, works fine BUT the rear der ajustment has
to be spot on or it will be noisier than the DA 10s stuff is already.
