Our Grade 9 titanium foil is a Ti-3Al-2.5V alloy, blending 3% aluminum and 2.5% vanadium with titanium for enhanced strength and lighter weight compared to pure titanium grades. Its density of 4.48 g/cm³ makes it about 40% lighter than steel, ideal for sporting goods where every gram matters. The tensile strength of ~620 MPa provides excellent durability, while its formability allows for shaping into intricate components. The foil’s natural oxide layer resists corrosion from moisture, sweat, and environmental exposure, ensuring longevity in rugged outdoor use. Thermally stable up to 350°C and highly weldable, it’s a versatile choice for high-performance applications.
Applications
Our lightweight Grade 9 titanium foil is designed for high-performance sporting goods but excels in a range of uses:
Bicycle Frames: Reduces weight for faster, more agile bikes without sacrificing strength.
Golf Clubs: Enhances clubhead durability and swing speed with lightweight construction.
