Titanium Grade
The Main Titanium Grades used in world-wide are 2, 5, 7, 9 and 12.
Grade 2 Titanium, (DIN 3.7035)UNS R50400
The pure titanium is also called GRADE 2 TITANIUM; its mass hardness is between iron and aluminum, almost as strong as carbon steel; the strength ratio of weight is 2 times than iron, 6 times than aluminum; it is extremely a solid and strong metal.
Titanium is recognized for its high strength-to-weight ratio. It is a strong metal with low density that is quite lustrous, and metallic-white in color. The relatively high melting point (more than 1,650 °C or 3,000 °F) makes it useful as a refractory. It is paramagnetic and has fairly low electrical, the conductivity (Heat conductivity ratio is 4.4% of copper, electric resistance is 5 times than iron). It is used to be manufactured as for precious exhaust pipe for motorcycles and other parts that require high anti-temperature performance and lightweight.
A better anti-acid performance than iron; Used in the marine industry, power generation, chemical processing and desalination plants.
Grade 5 Titanium 64Ti (Ti-6Al-4V), (DIN 3.7165)UNS R56400
The 64Ti (Ti-6Al-4V) titanium alloy consists of 90% titanium + 6%aluminum + 4%vanadium, normally we call it as 64Ti or Grade 5 titanium. The specific weight is 4.5~4.8, hardness is over HB195, tensile stress is 686~1176MPa maximum could reach to 1764MP. Percentage of Area Reduction is 25%, normally under high temperature environment the titanium alloy still remains its stress property, and moreover its strength is stronger than that of at average temperature environment, also without losing its toughness as well.
The 64Ti (Ti-6Al-4V) titanium alloy has higher strength, hardness, and anti-impact performance than pure titanium; due to its difficulty to refine, the price in market is almost 3 times than pure titanium. Furthermore, a few manufactures that produces cheap titanium products from uncertain material providers results in poor quality of products. For providing high quality product concern, we use high standard of material which approved from ASTM to ensure every customer purchase the highest quality of 64TI (Ti-6Al-4V) titanium alloy products.
Used in engine components, marine applications, fasteners, aerospace and power generation.
Grade 7 Titanium (Ti-0.2Pd), (DIN 3.7225)UNS R52400
Grade 7 is physically and mechanically equivalent to grade 2 with the addition of palladium making it the most corrosion resistant of all the titanium alloys. Used in chemical processing.
Grade 9 Titanium (Ti-3Al-2.5V), (DIN 3.7195)UNS R56320
Grade 9 Titanium is a common grade of titanium, particularly in tubing. It is essentially composed of approximately 3% aluminum, 2.5% vanadium, with most of the remainder pure titanium (there are traces of several other elements). It’s light weight and high strength makes it a popular material choice in tubular form. Commonly used in titanium bicycle frame.
Grade 12 Titanium (Ti-0.3Mo-0.75Ni), (DIN 3.7105)UNS R53400
Grade 12 is highly durable which also has high strength at elevated temperatures. Used in high temperature chemical manufacture, marine and aircraft components.
