Key Grades Overview
Gr1–4 (CP Ti): Increasing strength with grade, excellent corrosion resistance, good formability.
Gr5 (Ti-6Al-4V): Most widely used; high strength, good biocompatibility, aerospace & medical.
Gr7: Similar to Gr2, with Pd addition for superior corrosion resistance.
Gr9 (Ti-3Al-2.5V): Balance of strength, formability, and weldability; used in aerospace tubing.
Gr12: Contains Mo + Ni, improved corrosion resistance in reducing acids.
Gr23 (ELI): Low interstitial Ti-6Al-4V, used for medical implants.
Applications
Aerospace: Airframes, landing gear, fasteners, hydraulic tubing
Medical: Orthopedic implants, dental implants, spinal cages, pacemakers
Chemical Processing: Heat exchangers, reactors, tanks, piping
Marine: Offshore rigs, underwater piping, propellers
Automotive: Exhausts, valve springs, suspension
Sports Equipment: Golf clubs, bicycles, tennis racquets
Jewelry: Durable, hypoallergenic designs
Welding & Fabrication: Titanium welding wire (ERTi series)
Manufacturing Process
