Titanium for sale / titanium metal supply / titanium metal supplier / titanium sales

Titanium Color: Silver

Talk about titanium supply or sales, I want to share an old article as below:

I believe, there are so many people worked in aerospace manufacturing, chemical industry, power generation, oil & gas industry, Nuclear plant, often have dealing with titanium, tantalum, niobium, nickel, zirconium and its alloys. maybe it has made you headache.

Now let me detail introduce the notes when you planed to purchase or buy titanium materials.

First, you  need to clear the common shape of titanium materials, there are several common shapes:

Bars/Rods

Plates/Sheets

Pipe Fittings: Elbows, Tees, Reduces, Flanges

Forgings

Fasteners: Nuts, Bolts, Screws, Washers

Custom Designed Parts

Second, you need know the materials.

Pure Titanium and Titanium Alloys

Common Pure Titanium Materials: Gr1, Gr2

Common Titanium Alloy Materials: Gr5, Gr7, Gr9, Gr12

Third: Characteristic of titanium materials

You can decide which materials will be suitable for you once you know about the characteristic of titanium materials.

1. Corrosion resistance, so this material is widely used in chemical industry and water desalination and shipbuilding industry.

2. Low density with high strength. density of titanium is 4.51 and density of stainless steel is 7.8. this feature make titanium materials widely used in aerospace manufacturing.

3. Non-toxic and no-magnetic. strong affability with body, so it is widely used in medical industry, such as medical device and implant materials.

Fourth, How to express. you can clearly express the specification for your supplier. (unit:mm)

Bars: OD * Length    Eg: OD10*1000mm

Plates: Thickness * width * length   Eg: 5*1000*2000mm

Tube: OD * ID * Length   Eg: OD50*ID40*1000mm

Fifth, How to calculate weight

Bars: π*r*r*ρ*L/1000000 (kgs) 

           Eg: OD10*1000mm    0.354kgs

Plate: Width*Length*Thickness*ρ/1000000 (kgs)

           Eg: 5*1000*2000mm     45.1kgs

Tube: (OD-TK)*TK*ρ*π*L/1000000 (kgs)

           Eg: OD50*ID40*1000mm       3.186kgs

Sixth: Standard

Bars: ASTM B348

Plates: ASTM B265

Seamless Tube:  ASTM B861

Welded Pipes: ASTM B862

Heat Exchanger & Condensers Tube: ASTM B338

Elbows, Tees, Reducers: ASTM B363

Forgings:  ASTM B381

So, if you want to buy or import titanium materials, you need

know the details, including:

Materials (eg: Gr1), 

Specifications, Quantities,  Standards. For examples:

I need a GRADE2 BARS, its specification is OD10X1000mm

quantity is 100kgs. standard is ASTM B348.

So this is very clear to supplier, and you will get your price 

very soon！
