Our high-purity Titanium Wire is a game-changer for 3D printing and additive manufacturing, delivering the precision and performance needed for cutting-edge applications. Made from Grade 1 (99.5% pure titanium) or Grade 2 (99.2% pure titanium), this wire meets ASTM B863 standards, ensuring top quality for wire-based additive manufacturing processes. It’s perfect for crafting complex components like aerospace parts, medical implants, and automotive prototypes.
Available in diameters from 0.1mm to 3mm, our wire comes in spools or custom-cut lengths to fit your 3D printing setup. Its high purity and ductility ensure smooth feeding and consistent melting, producing flawless printed parts with minimal defects. Both grades offer excellent corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, making them ideal for industries where reliability is critical. Whether you’re printing a lightweight turbine blade or a patient-specific implant, our titanium wire gets the job done.
Our high-purity titanium wire is a standout for additive manufacturing. Grade 1’s tensile strength of 240-370 MPa and Grade 2’s 345-450 MPa provide enough strength for most 3D-printed parts, while their high ductility ensures easy processing in wire-fed systems. Compared to 316L stainless steel (485-620 MPa), titanium is lighter (4.51 g/cm³ vs. 8.0 g/cm³) and offers superior corrosion resistance, especially against chemicals and bodily fluids. This makes it a top choice for medical and aerospace applications.
The biocompatibility of our wire is a big win for 3D-printed implants, as it integrates seamlessly with human tissue without causing reactions. Unlike stainless steel, which can suffer pitting corrosion, our titanium wire stays pristine in harsh environments. Both grades handle temperatures up to 350°F (177°C) for Grade 1 and 400°F (204°C) for Grade 2, ensuring stability in demanding printing conditions. Their purity minimizes impurities that could cause printing defects, delivering high-quality, consistent results.
