Titanium 6AL-4V

Titanium 6AL-4V

Titanium 6AL-4V is one of the most common and available grades of titanium. It is considered a military grade titanium. Among its many advantages, it is heat treatable. This grade is an excellent combination of strength, corrosion resistance, weld and fabricability. In consequence, its uses are numerous such as for military aircraft or turbines. Generally, it is used in applications up to 400 degrees Celsius. Its properties are very similar to those of the 300 stainless steel series, especially 316. It is as strong as steel but half the weight. Also, it is twice the weight of aluminum but twice as strong.
