Titanium Grade 5
Titanium Grade 5 (Ti6Al4V)
Properties of Titanium Grade 5 (Ti6Al4V)
Titanium Grade 5 is the most widely used titanium alloy, offering a broad range of applications. It provides an optimal combination of high strength, low weight, excellent corrosion resistance, and good ductility. The alloy remains mechanically stable up to approx. 400 °C and is weldable. In addition to the standard grade, an ELI (Extra-Low Interstitial) version is also available, which is used particularly for medical applications.
- High specific strength
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- Good weldability
- Temperature resistance up to approx. 400 °C
- Non-magnetic.
