2. Titanium Grade 1
• Titanium Grade 1 is “unalloyed” titanium offering optimum ductility and
cold formability. This grade has high impact toughness and is readily
weldable.
The material is capable of deep drawing, and used for plate, frame, and tube
heat exchangers, and also is used as plate for explosive bonding for clad
plate.
The titanium grade is castable and is sometimes utilized “as cast” in dental
applications.
• This titanium material is available as casting, wire, welded
tube, bar, plate, sheet, forgings, and billet.
• with the nice ductility of titanium grade 1, it is widely used in stampings.

3. Titanium Grade 2
• Titanium grade 2 is also “unalloyed” titanium offering an excellent
balance of strength and ductility. This grade has good toughness and is
readily weldable. This material is very corrosion resistant in highly
oxidizing and mildly reducing environments. The material is castable
and is often utilized in cast valves and fittings. In plate form, the alloy
is also used explosively bonded to make clad plate.
• This titanium material is available as casting, wire, welded tube, pipe, plate,
sheet, strip, forgings, bar and billet.

4. Titanium Grade 3
• Titanium Alloy Grade 3 is “unalloyed” titanium offering improved
strength, moderate ductility, and ASME Code design allowables. This
material is readily weldable and is very corrosion resistant in highly
oxidizing and mildly reducing environments.
• The titanium material is castable and is often utilized in cast valves and
fittings. This titanium is available as casting, wire, welded
tube, pipe, plate, sheet, forgings, bar and billet.

5. Titanium Grade 4
• Titanium Alloy Grade 4 is “unalloyed” titanium offering improved
strength, moderate ductility, and ASME Code design allowable. This
material is readily weldable and is very corrosion resistant in highly
oxidizing and mildly reducing environments. The material is castable.

6. Titanium Grade 5
• This Titanium Grade 5(Ti-6Al-4V) alloy is the most widely used titanium
alloy of the alpha-plus-beta class and it is also the most common of all
titanium alloys.
• The alloy is very well castable and is utilized “ as cast” in sporting goods.
The wrought material is used in aerospace, medical, and other applications
where moderate strength, good strength to weight and favorable corrosion
properties are required.
•
This titanium alloy is available as casting, wire, bar, plate, sheet, forgings,
rings, and billet.

7. Titanium Grade 7
• Titanium Palladium Alloy Gr 7 (Ti Pd Alloy) is the most corrosion resistant
of all currently available titanium alloys. This grade is especially well suited
to applications requiring resistance to general as well as localized crevice
corrosion. Grade 7 also exhibits good strength, welding and forming
characterise.
• Titanium Grade 7 is commonly used, to chemical treatments, desalination
and the production of electricity.
• This titanium alloy is available as castings, wire, welded
tube, pipe, plate, sheet, strip, forgings, bar, and billet.

8. Titanium Grade 9
• This titanium alloy is an alpha alloy that is strengthened by cold
working. The material exhibits good ductility and toughness.
• It is used in a wide range of tubular products from aircraft ducting to golf
club shafts and bicycle frames.
• The alloy is available as wire, bar, sheet, seamless and welded tubing.

9. Titanium Grade 11
Titanium grade 11 is very similar to Grade 1, except for the addition of a tiny
bit of palladium to enhance corrosion resistance, making it an alloy. This
corrosion resistance is useful to protect against crevice erosion and
reducing acid in chloride environments.
• This titanium alloy widely used in chemical processing, chlorate
manufacturing, desalination, marine applications.

10. Titanium Grade 12
• Titanium alloy grade 12 holds an “excellent” rating for its high quality
weldability. It is a highly durable alloy that provides a lot of strength at high
temperatures. Grade 12 titanium possesses characteristics similar to 300
series stainless steels.
• Titanium alloy grade 12 is widely used in shell and heat
exchangers, hydrometallurgical applications, elevated temperature
chemical manufacturing, marine and airfare components.

11. Titanium Grade 23
• Grade 23 is also known as Ti-6Al-4V ELI or simply Ti 6-4 ELI. ELI stands
for Extra Low Interstitials. Titanium Grade 23 is very similar to Grade 5
except that Grade 23 has less oxygen, nitrogen and iron. This makes the
alloy more ductility and better fracture resistance (but slightly less strength)
than Grade 5.
• 6Al-4V ELI is one of the most widely used Titanium alloys in the medical
industry. It is certified to ASTM F136, and commonly referred to as implant
grade 6-4 Titanium. It's properties of biocompatibility, corrosion
resistance, high strength, and toughness make it especially suitable for
implants and other medical devices.
