Titanium Tube

Product Introduction:

Titanium tube is a tubular material made from titanium or titanium alloy, which has the characteristics of light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and excellent biocompatibility. It is widely used in extreme environments and high-end manufacturing fields.
Product Category:


1. Classified by structure and alloy type

Industrial pure titanium tubes: TA1 and TA2 grades, focusing on corrosion resistance and processability, used in chemical heat exchangers and electroplated anodes;

Titanium alloy tube:

α+β alloy tube: such as TC4, with excellent comprehensive performance, suitable for aerospace structural components;

Corrosion resistant alloy tube: such as TA10, resistant to crevice corrosion, used in seawater desalination equipment.

2. Classify by processing form

Seamless titanium tube: formed by extrusion, oblique rolling or cold drawing, with uniform wall thickness, suitable for high-pressure scenarios;

Welded titanium tube: made of rolled plate welding, low cost, used for low-pressure transportation.


Common brand:


Domestic brand: TA2 TC4、 TA9, Gr23.

International grades: Gr2, Gr5, Gr7, etc.


Production process:


1. Melting: Vacuum consumable arc furnace or electron beam melting is used to ensure uniform composition and impurity content<0.1%;

2. Molding process:

Extrusion molding: heated to 800-950 ℃, extruded through a mold to form a blank tube;

Cold rolling/cold drawing: precision machining to target size at room temperature, surface roughness Ra ≤ 0.4 μ m;

3. Welding treatment: argon arc welding or laser welding, with a weld strength of over 90% of the base metal;

4. Surface treatment: acid washing, sandblasting or anodizing to enhance corrosion resistance and aesthetics.


Performance characteristics:


High strength and lightweight: TC4 titanium tube has a tensile strength of 895-1100MPa and a density of only 60% of steel;

Corrosion resistance: It has better corrosion resistance to seawater and chlor alkali media than stainless steel, and its service life is increased by 3-5 times;

Temperature adaptability: TA7 titanium tubes maintain toughness at -253 ℃, while TC11 alloy tubes can be used for long-term high temperatures up to 600 ℃;

Biocompatibility: Non toxic, non-magnetic, in compliance with ISO 5832 standard.


Application areas:


Aerospace, chemical and marine industries, energy industry, military equipment.
