Product Introduction
- High Strength Titanium Rod is supplied primarily in Grade 5 Ti-6Al-4V for machined components requiring higher strength, fatigue resistance, and lower weight than many conventional engineering alloys.
- Grade 23 Ti-6Al-4V ELI can be reviewed when lower interstitial content, fracture-sensitive performance, or medical application requirements are specified. It should not be treated as a routine substitute for Grade 5 without confirming the applicable standard and end use.
- Final grade, diameter, material condition, surface, inspection scope, and machining allowance should be selected according to the loading condition, working environment, and downstream processing requirements.

Product Features & Application
- Strength for Load-Bearing Components
Grade 5 titanium rod is commonly selected for machined parts requiring higher strength, fatigue resistance, and reduced component weight. Typical downstream parts include aerospace fasteners, motorsport shafts, structural brackets, marine drive components, and other load-bearing parts.
- Grade Selection by Application
Grade 5 is the primary option for general high-strength industrial use. Grade 23 ELI is reviewed when lower interstitial content, improved fracture-sensitive performance, or medical requirements are specified. The final grade should follow the applicable material standard and component design.
- Machining and Fabrication
High-strength titanium rods can be supplied in annealed, turned, polished, or machined condition. Cutting, turning, drilling, threading, and welding requirements should be confirmed according to the grade, diameter, material condition, and final component geometry.
- Corrosion and Service Environment
Ti-6Al-4V alloys provide corrosion resistance in many marine and industrial environments. Final suitability should be reviewed according to the working medium, temperature, mechanical stress, crevice conditions, and connection method.
- Typical Applications
Aerospace structural parts and fasteners, motorsport shafts and suspension components, marine and subsea machined parts, industrial load-bearing connectors, and medical components when Grade 23 and ASTM F136 are specified.

FAQ
Q1: How do I choose between Gr5 and Gr23 rods?
A1: Both are Ti-6Al-4V alloys. Gr5 is standard and widely available. Gr23 has extra toughness and is often chosen for aerospace safety parts, medical tools, or low-temperature service.
Q2: Is machining titanium difficult?
A2: Yes, titanium hardens during cutting and conducts heat poorly. We suggest sharp carbide tools, slower speeds, higher feeds, and plenty of coolant. Many customers machine short passes to avoid overheating.
Q3: Can titanium rods be welded?
A3: They can. TIG welding works well with full gas shielding. Keep oxygen and nitrogen out of the weld zone.
Q4: How long can rods last in seawater?
A4: Service life depends on design load and maintenance. In practice, users report much better performance than stainless steels, especially in long-term immersion.
Q5: Do you accept small orders?
A5: Yes, trial pieces and cut lengths are available for prototypes or urgent repairs.
