Our industrial-grade Titanium Wire is a powerhouse for heat exchangers and piping systems, built to handle the toughest industrial conditions with ease. Available in Grade 2 (99.2% pure titanium) and Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V with 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium), this wire meets ASTM B863 standards, ensuring top-notch quality. It’s perfect for tubing, fittings, and wire-based components in systems exposed to corrosive fluids like acids or chlorides.
We offer this wire in diameters from 0.1mm to 10mm, in coils, spools, or custom-cut lengths to fit your manufacturing needs. Grade 2 shines for its corrosion resistance and formability, ideal for intricate piping, while Grade 5 brings extra strength for high-pressure heat exchanger components. Both grades are lightweight and resist corrosion, making them a go-to choice for industrial applications where durability and efficiency are key.
Our industrial-grade titanium wire is a cut above for heat exchangers and piping. Grade 2’s tensile strength of 345-450 MPa is perfect for most piping applications, with high ductility that makes it easy to shape into complex fittings. Grade 5, with a tensile strength of 900-1000 MPa, is a beast for high-pressure systems, outpacing 316L stainless steel (485-620 MPa) in strength and corrosion resistance. Unlike stainless steel, which can suffer chloride-induced pitting, our titanium wire stays corrosion-free in aggressive chemical environments.
Titanium’s low density (4.43-4.51 g/cm³) compared to stainless steel’s 8.0 g/cm³ reduces equipment weight, improving efficiency in heat transfer systems. Grade 2 handles temperatures up to 400°F (204°C), while Grade 5 pushes it to 600°F (316°C), covering a wide range of industrial conditions. Grade 2’s formability makes it a breeze to work with, while Grade 5’s hardness requires our advanced machining techniques to ensure precision. Both grades are weldable with TIG methods, producing strong, corrosion-resistant joints for reliable piping systems.
Industry Analysis: Trends Driving Titanium Wire Demand
The industrial sector is buzzing, and our titanium wire is riding the wave. With global demand for chemical processing and energy production on the rise, the need for corrosion-resistant materials is stronger than ever.
