Common grades and material classifications
Titanium standard components primarily utilize titanium alloy materials such as TA1, TA2, and TC4 (corresponding to international designations Gr1, Gr2, and Gr5).
TA1/TA2: These are commercially pure titanium grades with a titanium content of over 95%. They exhibit excellent corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, making them suitable for medical and healthcare equipment as well as lightweight structural components.
TC4 (titanium 6 aluminum 4 vanadium): a widely used α+β titanium alloy, characterized by high strength, low specific gravity, and good heat resistance, especially playing a dominant role in aero-engines and spacecraft structures.
Core advantages compared to stainless steel
The density is approximately 4.5 g/cm³, which is about 43% lighter than stainless steel, significantly achieving lightweight.
It exhibits stronger corrosion resistance, particularly demonstrating stability in seawater, chloride ion environments, and under strong acid conditions.
With excellent biocompatibility, it will not trigger human body's rejection response, making it an ideal choice for implantable medical and health devices.
Processing and customization capabilities
Most suppliers support customization of non-standard parts according to drawings, covering types such as screws, nuts, irregular-shaped parts, and forgings. Computer numerical control (CNC) machining, forging, and anodizing are mainstream processes. Some enterprises possess spectral detection capabilities to ensure that the composition meets standards.
