Titanium 6Al-4V Grade 5 Product Guide
Applications | Specifications | Mechanical and Chemical Data | Tolerances
Overview
The most popular titanium grade, often associated with medical and aerospace applications, though it is also biocompatible. 6Al-4V offers high corrosion resistance and the approximate strength of 6061-T6 aluminum. Its high strength to weight ratio give it a diversified field of applications ranging from medical applications to aerospace and automotive fabrication. Typically used in airframe components, cryogenic vessels, heat exchangers, condenser tubing, and pickling baskets. Typically used in blades, discs, rings, airframes, fasteners, pressure vessels, cases, hubs, forgings, biomedical implants.
