HEAT TREATMENT
- For applications requiring high hardness, tensile strength, and fatigue strength, our titanium rods can undergo annealing at temperatures ranging from 1,700-1,900°F (927 - 1,038°C).
The DAXUN 6-4™ Grade 5 alloy is versatile in heat treatment, adaptable to various conditions. - 1. Anneal: 1,275 -1,400°F; (691 - 760°C), ½ to 2 hours, followed by air or furnace cooling.
- 2. Stress Relief Anneal: 1,000 -1,200°F; (538 - 649°C), sustained for 1 to 8 hours, with air or furnace cooling.
- 3. Solution Heat Treat: 1,675 -1,750°F; (913 - 954°C) for 1 hour, then water quenching.
- 4. Aging: 975 -1,025°F; (524 - 552°C) maintained for 4 to 8 hours, followed by air cooling.
In the solution treated and aged state, rapid quenching of smaller sections yields optimal properties. However, larger sections or delayed quenching may result in sub-optimal properties.
HARDNESS
The typical hardness in the annealed state is Rockwell C 30-34, while in the solution treated and aged condition, it ranges from Rockwell C 35-39.
Forgeability/Formability
- The Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 alloy bar is forged at 1,750°F (954°C) with a final forging temperature of 1,450°F (788°C). Achieving a minimum of 35% reduction is recommended to ensure optimal properties.
- The Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 alloy bar can be challenging to form at room temperature, even when annealed. Thus, severe forming operations like bending or stretching should be executed on annealed material at temperatures up to 1,200°F (649°C) to maintain mechanical properties. Hot sizing or forming can be effectively performed through creep forming at temperatures ranging from 1,000 - 1,200°F (538 - 649°C).
Machinability
The Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 alloy bar can be efficiently machined using methods applicable to austenitic stainless steel, involving slow speeds, high feeds, rigid tools, and a substantial use of non-chlorinated cutting fluids.
Weldability
Our Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 alloy rod is renowned for its exceptional weldability in both the annealed and solution-aged conditions, with aging achieved during post-weld heat treatment. Precision is paramount to avoid contamination by oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. Fusion welding should occur in an inert gas-filled chamber or with inert gas to protect the molten metal and its adjacent heated zones, complemented by a tail shield. Spot, seam, and flash welding can be executed without needing a protective atmosphere.
Special Considerations
The Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5 titanium alloy rod must be handled carefully to avoid contamination by hydrogen during improper pickling and by oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon during processes like forging, heat treating, and brazing. Such contamination can significantly reduce ductility, negatively impacting notch sensitivity and forming characteristics.

Grade 2 Titanium Rod
Exceptional Corrosion Resistance
Titanium should be avoided in environments with strong reducing acids, fluoride solutions, pure oxygen, or anhydrous ***.
Versatile General Corrosion Resistance
The corrosion rates for Grade 2 titanium in various media are summarized in Table 1. CP titanium demonstrates impressive corrosion resistance across numerous 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 offers excellent crevice corrosion resistance in salt solutions, outperforming stainless steels. It remains unaffected by crevice corrosion at temperatures below 80°C (176°F), irrespective of pH, even under super chlorinated conditions.
Outstanding Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance
Grade 2 titanium excels in resisting stress corrosion (SCC) cracking in hot chloride solutions and is immune to SCC in seawater.
Superior Erosion Corrosion Resistance
Titanium showcases remarkable erosion resistance in flowing
seawater with velocities up to 130 ft/sec (40 m/sec), exhibiting negligible material degradation. The presence of abrasive particles, such as sand, minimally affects corrosion.
Minimal Hydrogen Embrittlement Risk
Titanium absorbs negligible hydrogen when exposed to seawater, even at elevated temperatures. Hydrogen absorption typically occurs only under the following conditions:
- pH levels are <3 or >12
- Temperature exceeds 176°F (80°C)
- A mechanism for hydrogen generation, such as a galvanic couple or impressed current, is present.
Resilient Bio-Corrosion Resistance
Titanium alloys have showcased unparalleled resistance to all forms of microbiologically influenced corrosion. Remarkably, these alloys do not exhibit toxicity toward marine organisms, although biofouling can still occur in seawater environments. This issue can be effectively managed through chlorination or by enhancing the water velocity within the heat exchanger system.
Corrosion Fatigue
Titanium, unlike many other materials, maintains its fatigue performance even in the presence of seawater. The fatigue endurance limits and *** growth rates remain consistent whether tested in air or seawater, making it a reliable material for marine applications.
Galvanic Corrosion
In the galvanic series, titanium is positioned towards the noble end near stainless steels, typically acting as the cathode when paired with other metals. Consequently, titanium itself remains unaffected by galvanic corrosion but can expedite the corrosion of the coupled metal. Interestingly, pairing titanium with more noble metals, like graphite, further enhances its passivity.
Fatigue Properties
Grade 2 Titanium Rod stands out among many materials for its consistent fatigue properties, even in seawater. The endurance limits and *** growth rates are equivalent whether tested in air or seawater, highlighting its durability.
Weldability
CP2 Grade Titanium Rod exhibits excellent weldability when the appropriate precautions are observed. Due to titanium's reactivity, an inert gas shield is essential on both the OD and ID of the rod, and the material must be free from grease or oil contamination to ensure a successful weld.
Grade 2 Titanium Rod is predominantly welded using manual or automatic TIG welding, with or without filler wire. Employing low heat input minimizes the heat-affected zone, and typically, post-weld heat treatment is not necessary for Titanium Rod.
