Titanium alloy tube performance

Titanium alloy tube performance: Titanium alloy tube is a new type of metal. The performance of titanium is related to the content of impurities such as carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen. The purest titanium iodide impurity content does not exceed 0.1%, but its strength is low. High plasticity. The performance of 99.5% industrial pure titanium is: density ρ=4.5g/cm3, melting point is 1725°C, thermal conductivity λ=15.24W/(mK), tensile strength σb=539MPa, elongation δ=25%, section Shrinkage ψ=25%, elastic modulus E=1.078×105MPa, hardness HB195.

Classification of titanium alloy tubes

The titanium alloy tube is a tube made of a titanium alloy, and the titanium alloy can be classified into three types according to the structure.
1. Add aluminum and tin to titanium.
2. Titanium is added with alloying elements such as aluminum chromium molybdenum vanadium.
3. Add elements such as aluminum and vanadium to titanium.

They have high mechanical properties, excellent stamping properties, and can be welded in various forms. The strength of the welded joint can reach 90% of the strength of the base metal, and the cutting performance is good. Titanium tubes have high corrosion resistance to chlorides, sulfides and ammonia. The corrosion resistance of titanium in seawater is higher than that of aluminum alloy, stainless steel and nickel-based alloy. Titanium is also resistant to water shock.

Characteristics and application of industrial pure titanium tube

Titanium has plasticity. The high-purity titanium has an elongation of 50 to 60% and a reduction in area of ​​70 to 80%. Despite the low strength of high-purity titanium, pure industrial titanium contains a small amount of impurities and the addition of alloying elements can significantly enhance its mechanical properties, so that its strength can be compared with high strength. This means that industrial pure titanium tubes can have both high strength and proper plasticity as long as they contain a small amount of interstitial impurities and other metal impurities.

The specific strength (strength to weight ratio) of industrial pure titanium pipes is very high in metal structural materials. Its strength is comparable to that of steel, but its weight is only 57% of that of steel. In addition, the titanium tube has a high heat resistance and maintains good strength and stability in an atmosphere of 500 °C. The titanium tube also has good low temperature resistance, and even at an ultra-low temperature of -250 °C, it has high impact strength and can withstand high pressure and vibration.

Another remarkable feature of the industrial pure titanium tube is its high corrosion resistance. This is because it has a particularly high affinity for oxygen and can form a dense oxide film on its surface to protect the titanium from the medium. Therefore, titanium has excellent stability in acidic, alkaline, neutral saline solutions and oxidizing media, and is superior in corrosion resistance to existing stainless steels and other non-ferrous metals. Industrial pure titanium tubes are widely used. At present, industrial pure titanium tubes are not only used in aerospace and aviation industries, but also widely used in many industrial sectors such as chemical, petroleum, light industry and power generation.

Because pure industrial titanium tube has many excellent characteristics such as light weight, high strength, strong heat resistance and corrosion resistance, it is known as “the metal of the future” and is a new type of structural material with great development prospects.

Application of titanium tube and titanium bicycle

Road bike frames are made of titanium and other metals (usually aluminum and vanadium) in different proportions of alloy, depending on the physical properties required, which improves the durability and physical properties of pure metals. Frame manufacturers often refer to “aviation grade” pipes.

Titanium tube kits are available for cold drawing and hydroforming, such as aluminum alloys. Thus, although the titanium frame may have a circular head with external cable routing, the tube kit may have other shapes and also allow for internal wiring.

As with any metal frame, the frame tube is cut to length and slope prior to welding. Because titanium reacts with oxygen, welding titanium sleeves is more complicated than making alloy frames. Therefore, it takes up to five hours of labor to complete the weld. The tube must then be tapped to fit the parts bolted and screwed onto the frame and the final finish and logo added.

Titanium has a higher ability to deform in response to road defects than other metals used in bicycle frames. This means that a well-designed titanium frame can better handle bumpy surfaces for a more comfortable ride. Titanium frames are often paired with carbon forks to enhance road comfort.
It’s lightweight, tough, and comfortable, and if designed, it will give you incredible responsiveness and propulsion.
The gr9 titanium tube we produce is of good quality and low price. It can be supplied to you as a titanium tube material for making titanium frame in large quantities. At present, there are also a large number of stocks. Welcome to inquiry..
