Industrial verticals for titanium alloys
Aerospace and aircraft industry.
The aerospace industry is the largest user of titanium products. It is a useful material for this industry due to its high strength to weight ratio and high temperature properties. Titanium is commonly used in aircraft parts and fasteners.
These same properties allow titanium to be used in the body of gas turbine engines, while it can also be used in other components such as compressor blades, casings, hoods and heat shields.
defense industry.
Titanium has been used in aircraft for nearly 60 years, especially in military aircraft. 42% of the structural weight of the Lockheed Martin F22 Raptor, which entered service in the United States in late 2005, is made of titanium. Even back in the '60s, 93% of the structural weight of the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird consisted of titanium alloys.
It is also used in Lockheed Martin JSF (about one-third of the aircraft by weight) and Airbus A350 and A380 commercial airliners.
Medical industry.
The list of titanium benefits is long. This makes it very useful for many different industries, including automotive, aerospace and construction. But titanium has also become a staple in medicine because of its corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, and innate ability to bond with human bones.
From surgical titanium instruments to orthopedic titanium rods, needles and plates, medical and dental titanium has truly become a fundamental material used in medicine.
industrial applications.
Titanium is used in engine applications such as rotors, compressor blades, hydraulic system components and nacelles. Titanium 6AL-4V alloys make up nearly 50% of all alloys used in aircraft applications.
Appliance and building applications.
Titanium is used in automotive applications, especially in car or motorcycle racing, where weight reduction is critical while maintaining high strength and rigidity.
Titanium is used in many sporting goods: tennis rackets, golf clubs, lacrosse shafts, cricket, hockey, lacrosse and football helmet grilles, and bicycle frames and components.
Commercially pure titanium
Commercially pure titanium is available in four grades, classified by strength, so the most suitable material can be selected based on the required strength and machinability.
They are used in nonstructural applications such as kitchen and sanitary water systems, as well as plumbing and piping, many of which require corrosion resistance and good formability.
Titanium electrode
Titanium alloys are designed to balance good properties including: strength, ductility, fracture toughness, high temperature strength, creep properties, weldability, machinability and hot workability (higher strengths are easily achieved by heat treatment).
Therefore, this alloy is used in many airframe and engine components. Furthermore, this alloy has many practical applications in aircraft requiring high reliability, and the availability of abundant data facilitates its application.
We stock a wide variety of titanium rolled forms such as plate, sheet, coil, strip, foil, billet, bar and wire. Our materials are of high quality and are fully orthopaedic certified (ASTM F-136, F167 and F1472), Aerospace (AMS, Mil-T) and Industry Specifications (ASTM and ASME).
