HEAT TREATMENT
- For applications requiring high hardness, tensile strength, and fatigue resistance, annealing can be performed at 1,700-1,900°F (927 - 1,038°C).
DAXUN 6-4™ Grade 5 alloy offers versatile heat treatment options. - 1. Anneal: 1,275 -1,400°F; (691 - 760°C), ½ to 2 hours, air or furnace cool
- 2. Stress Relief Anneal: 1,000 -1,200°F; (538 - 649°C), 1 to 8 hours, air or furnace cool
- 3. Solution Heat Treat: 1,675 -1,750°F; (913 - 954°C), 1 hour, water quench
- 4. Aging: 975 -1,025°F; (524 - 552°C), 4 to 8 hours - air cool
In the solution-treated and aged condition, rapid quenching of small sections achieves optimal properties, although larger sections and/or delayed quenching may lead to suboptimal properties.
HARDNESS
Typical hardness in the annealed state is Rockwell C 30-34, and Rockwell C 35-39 in the solution and aged state.
Forgeability/Formability
- Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 alloy bars are forged at 1,750°F; (954°C) with a final forging temperature of 1,450°F; (788°C). A minimum 35% reduction is recommended for optimal properties.
- Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 alloy bars are challenging to form at room temperature, even when annealed. Therefore, severe forming operations such as bending or stretching can be performed on annealed material at temperatures up to 1,200°F; (649°C) without compromising mechanical properties. Hot sizing or forming can be achieved through creep forming in the range of 1,000 - 1,200°F; (538 - 649°C).
Machinability
Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 alloy bars can be machined using methods applicable to austenitic stainless steel, involving slow speeds, high feeds, rigid tools, and ample non-chlorinated cutting fluids.
Weldability
The Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 alloy rod is a versatile and highly weldable material, whether in its annealed state or solution and partially aged condition. Aging is achieved during post-weld heat treatment. To maintain its integrity, precautions are essential to avoid contamination by oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. Fusion welding can be expertly performed in an inert gas-filled chamber or with inert gas applied to the molten metal and adjacent heated areas, utilizing a tail shield. Additionally, spot, seam, and flash welding can be conducted without the necessity of a protective atmosphere.
Special Considerations
The Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 titanium alloy rod is susceptible to contamination from hydrogen during improper pickling, as well as oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon during forging, heat treating, and brazing processes. Such contamination can lead to a reduction in ductility, negatively impacting notch sensitivity and forming characteristics.

Premium Grade 2 Titanium Rod
Unmatched Corrosion Resistance
Note: Titanium should not be used with potent reducing acids, fluoride solutions, pure oxygen, or anhydrous ***.
General Corrosion Protection
The general corrosion rates for Grade 2 titanium in various media are summarized in Table 1. CP titanium shows excellent corrosion resistance in a diverse range of environments, including:
- Seawater and brines
- Inorganic salts
- Moist *** gas
- Alkaline solutions
- Oxidizing acids
- Organics and organic acids
- Sulfur compounds
Superior Crevice Corrosion Resistance
CP titanium demonstrates outstanding resistance to crevice corrosion in salt solutions compared to stainless steels. CP titanium will not experience crevice corrosion at temperatures below 80°C (176°F) regardless of pH, even in super chlorinated conditions.
Excellent Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance
Grade 2 titanium provides exceptional resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in hot chloride solutions and remains immune to SCC in seawater.
Exceptional Erosion Corrosion Resistance
Titanium exhibits remarkable resistance to erosion in flowing
seawater at velocities up to 130 ft/sec (40 m/sec), showing negligible material impact. Even with abrasive particles like sand, the corrosion effect is minimal.
Robust Hydrogen Embrittlement Resistance
Titanium shows no significant hydrogen absorption when exposed to seawater, even at elevated temperatures. Typically, hydrogen absorption occurs only under these conditions:
- pH levels are < 3 or > 12
- Temperatures exceed 176°F (80°C)
- A mechanism for hydrogen generation is present, such as a galvanic couple or impressed current.
Advanced Bio-Corrosion Resistance
Titanium alloys exhibit an exceptional resistance to microbiologically influenced corrosion, making them a superior choice for various marine applications. Unlike many metals, titanium alloys are non-toxic to marine life, which can sometimes lead to biofouling in seawater environments. However, this issue can be effectively managed through chlorination or by increasing the flow rate of water through heat exchangers.
Corrosion Fatigue
Titanium's resilience stands out even in challenging environments. Unlike other materials, titanium maintains its fatigue performance in seawater just as it does in air. The fatigue endurance limits and *** growth rates remain consistent, making it a reliable choice for marine applications.
Galvanic Corrosion
In the galvanic series, titanium is positioned near the noble end alongside stainless steels. Typically acting as a cathode when paired with other metals, titanium doesn't suffer from galvanic corrosion. Instead, it can accelerate the corrosion of the less noble metal. When coupled with even more noble metals like graphite, titanium's passive state is further enhanced.
Fatigue Properties
Grade 2 Titanium Rods excel in maintaining their fatigue properties, even in corrosive environments such as seawater. The endurance limits and *** growth rates are unaffected by the presence of seawater, making it a robust material for demanding applications.
Weldability
The CP2 Grade Titanium Rod boasts excellent weldability when proper precautions are in place. Due to titanium's high reactivity, it requires an inert gas shield on both the outer and inner diameters during welding. Ensuring the rod is free from grease or oil contamination is crucial for optimal results.
Manual or automatic TIG welding, with or without filler wire, is typically used for Grade 2 Titanium Rods. To minimize the heat affected zone, a low heat input is recommended. Post weld heat treatment is not usually necessary for Titanium Rods.
