Grade 5 Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) Wire UNS R56400

Grade 5 Titanium (6-4) Shaped, Flat, Square, Round, Fine Wire, Plated and Un-plated ASTM B265, AMS 4911, AMS 4928

Grade 5 Titanium 6Al-4V Alloy Description

Stronger than commercially pure titanium alloys is titanium 6Al-4V (Grade 5). Containing 6% Aluminum and 4% Vanadium, this alloy has many advantages, among them being that the alloy is heat treatable, has an excellent combination of strength, corrosion resistance, weldability and formability.

Applications

• Tension set rings
• Bolts
• bicycle part
• Biomedical implant
• High-temperature structural applications in the aircraft industry
