TITANIUM GRADE 2 BOLTS

About TITANIUM GRADE 2 BOLTS

Titanium Grade 2 bolts are lightweight, corrosion-resistant fasteners made from commercially pure titanium (UNS R50400). They are widely used in aerospace, marine, chemical, and medical industries due to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio, biocompatibility, and resistance to seawater and chemical environments.

Key Specifications of Titanium Grade 2 Bolts

• Material: Commercially pure titanium (Grade 2, UNS R50400, ASTM B348).
• Density: ~4.51 g/cm (about 60% lighter than steel).
• Tensile Strength: ~345 MPa.
• Yield Strength: ~275 MPa.
• Hardness: ~160 HB.
• Corrosion Resistance: Excellent in oxidizing and mildly reducing environments, seawater, and chlorides.
• Workability: Good formability, weldability, and ductility.

Common Uses

• Aerospace: Aircraft structures, engine components, and fasteners where weight reduction is critical.
• Marine: Shipbuilding, offshore platforms, and subsea equipment (resists seawater corrosion).
• Chemical Processing: Heat exchangers, reactors, and piping systems exposed to corrosive chemicals.
• Medical: Surgical implants, orthopedic devices, and dental applications (biocompatible and non-toxic).
• Automotive & Motorsport: High-performance vehicles requiring lightweight yet strong fasteners.
