Material is released to the applicable specification with mill test reports and, on request, independent lab verification.
Fabrication notes
Machining
Titanium runs at low surface speed with heavy positive feed, sharp tooling, rigid fixturing and high volume coolant. Dwelling glazes the surface and work hardens it. Chips are combustible, so manage swarf. We can supply rough machined, saw cut, waterjet or near net blanks to cut down the metal removed.
Welding
Readily weldable by GTAW, plasma, electron beam and laser processes with full inert gas shielding of the pool, root and cooling weld. Contamination shows up as colour on the bead and as embrittlement, so shielding and cleanliness govern the result.
Forming
Cold formability is limited compared with steel, so hot forming, generous bend radii and stress relief after forming are normal practice. Surfaces must be clean of iron pickup before heat treatment.
Designations and cross reference
- Material family
- Titanium & Titanium Alloys
Working from an obsolete, foreign or superseded designation? Send it over and we will cross reference it to a current grade and specification.
Quality, testing and traceability
Supplied with mill test reports, melt traceability, and ultrasonic inspection, penetrant dye, chemical assay, microstructure and mechanical testing available on request.
We are AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 registered. If our stock does not already carry the inspection your specification requires, we can quote the material with that work performed. More on our quality system
