Titanium Grade 2 Overview
Titanium Grade 2 (UNS R50400) is the most widely used grade of commercially pure titanium. It offers an excellent balance of moderate strength and reasonable ductility. Grade 2 titanium is extremely resistant to corrosion in highly oxidizing and mildly reducing environments, including chlorides. Its corrosion resistance is derived from a stable, protective, and strongly adherent oxide film that forms in the presence of even traces of oxygen. Steel Emporium provides Grade 2 Titanium pipes and tubes that are lightweight yet incredibly durable, making them ideal for marine, chemical, and aerospace applications.
Key Material Advantages
Lightweight Strength
About 45% lighter than steel with comparable strength-to-weight ratio.
Sea-Water Immunity
Virtually immune to corrosion in seawater and salt-spray environments.
Biocompatible
Non-toxic and highly compatible with the human body for medical use.
