Titanium rods CP grade (Gr1-Gr4)
Titanium commercial grade are commonly referred to as CP titanium. Titanium Grades 1,2,3,4 are all considered unalloyed CP grade and have similar properties.
Gr1 and Gr2 are the most widely used titanium alloys in all product forms for industrial and medical service, offering an excellent balance of moderate strength and reasonable ductility.
Gr3 offers optimum ductility and cold formability with useful strength, high impact toughness, and excellent weld-ability. Titanium Grade 3 is highly corrosion resistant in oxidizing and mildly reducing environments, including chlorides.
Gr4 offers reasonable high strength with good weld-ability. Good corrosion resistance in neutral to oxidizing environments, including chlorides.
HEXON can supply all CP grades titanium rods according to ASTM or AMS specification.
