ASTM B348 Gr5, Gr1, Gr2 Titanium Alloy Bar: Ideal for Aircraft Parts and Medical Implants

Product Overview

Our ASTM B348 Gr5, Gr1, and Gr2 titanium alloy bars are top - notch products designed to meet the high - end requirements of both the aerospace and medical industries. Titanium, known for its exceptional properties, is the material of choice for applications where strength, durability, and biocompatibility are crucial. These bars are manufactured with precision to ensure they adhere to the strict ASTM B348 standards, making them reliable for a wide range of critical uses.

Material Properties

Titanium Alloy Grades

• Gr5 (Ti - 6Al - 4V): This is one of the most widely used titanium alloys. It offers a high strength - to - weight ratio, excellent corrosion resistance, and good weldability. The addition of aluminum and vanadium enhances its mechanical properties, making it suitable for high - stress applications such as aircraft structural components, engine parts, and aerospace fasteners.
• Gr1: It is an unalloyed titanium grade with excellent formability and corrosion resistance. It has the highest ductility among the titanium grades, which makes it ideal for applications where complex forming operations are required. In the medical field, Gr1 titanium is often used for medical implants due to its biocompatibility, as it can be well - tolerated by the human body.
• Gr2: Similar to Gr1, Gr2 is also an unalloyed titanium grade. It has slightly higher strength than Gr1 while still maintaining good formability and corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in applications where a balance between strength and formability is needed, such as in the manufacturing of medical instruments and some aircraft components.

Surface Treatment

The bars undergo a bright rod surface treatment. This not only gives them an aesthetically pleasing silver color but also provides a smooth surface finish. The bright surface reduces friction and can enhance the corrosion resistance of the bars. It also makes the bars easier to clean and maintain, which is especially important in medical and aerospace applications where cleanliness is of utmost importance.

Shape and Dimensions

The product comes in a bar shape, which is a versatile form that can be easily machined into various components. Whether it's for creating intricate aircraft parts or precise medical implants, the bar shape provides a solid foundation for further processing. We can offer these bars in a variety of dimensions to meet the specific requirements of our customers. The diameter and length can be customized according to your project needs, ensuring that you get the exact size of the bar for your application.

Application Areas

Aerospace Industry

In the aerospace sector, these titanium alloy bars play a vital role. The high strength - to - weight ratio of Gr5 titanium makes it perfect for aircraft structural parts, such as wing spars and fuselage frames. These parts need to withstand high mechanical stresses during flight while keeping the overall weight of the aircraft low to improve fuel efficiency. Gr1 and Gr2 can also be used in less - stressed areas or for components that require good formability, like some interior parts of the aircraft.

Medical Industry

For medical applications, the biocompatibility of Gr1 and Gr2 titanium is a game - changer. They are used to make medical implants such as bone plates, screws, and dental implants. The human body can accept these titanium implants without triggering significant immune responses, which is essential for the long - term success of the implant. The corrosion resistance of titanium also ensures that the implants remain stable and functional inside the body for an extended period.
