Description of ASTM B348 Titanium Alloy Bars

Titanium is a metal with the slowest corrosion rate, so titanium products do not require any polishing treatment, and surface coating is also possible. Titanium alloy bars are widely used in grades 2 and 5, and all meet the ASTM B348 international standard. Compared with carbon steel products, ASTM B348 titanium alloy bars have the advantages of good mechanical properties, strong impact resistance, excellent corrosion resistance, light weight, and durability.

Among them, due to the high heat resistance and high tensile strength of grade 5 titanium alloy bars, about 50% of titanium alloys are used in marine engineering, aerospace, and military industries, such as aircraft engines, landing gear, hydraulic systems, and missile key components, and ship hulls, etc.

Moreover, in the medical field, ASTM B348 titanium alloy bars can be used not only as orthopaedic implants and reconstruction tools, but also in MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) and CT (computed tomography) techniques.

We can not only produce ASTM B348 titanium alloy bars with high cost performance and qualitybutnd also provide other international standard titanium plates, titanium wires, and titanium forgings.

The manufacturing process of ASTM B348 Titanium Alloy Bar

• Raw materials: Grade 0 titanium sponge + master alloy → three-stage vacuum arc melting (VAR) → 1100 ℃ multi-directional forging → finishing rolling.
• Heat treatment menu:
– Annealed state (M): 700 ℃×2 h AC, best plasticity.
– STA (solid solution + aging): 980 ℃×1 h WQ + 540 ℃×8 h AC, strength increased by 25%.
