Key Features
Good Strength and Ductility: Ti-811 offers a good balance of strength and ductility, making it ideal for applications requiring structural integrity and formability.
Lightweight: It retains the lightweight characteristic of titanium alloys, contributing to weight savings in components.
Corrosion Resistance: Ti-811 exhibits good resistance to corrosion in various environments, including seawater, chloride solutions, and some acids.
Weldability: The alloy is readily weldable using standard titanium welding techniques.
Cost-Effective: Ti-811 is often more budget-friendly than higher-strength titanium alloys.
Packing
Packed in plywood boxes.
Applications in Bar Form:
Aircraft structural components: Used for brackets, fittings, and other structural parts where moderate strength and good formability are required.
Engine components: These are employed for shafts, fasteners, and other engine parts that need to balance strength and weight.
Process equipment components: Utilized for shafts, pump components, and other parts exposed to corrosive chemicals.
Shafts and fasteners: Employed in marine applications for shafts, fasteners, and other components requiring corrosion resistance in seawater environments.
Surgical instruments: These are used for specific instruments requiring biocompatibility and moderate strength.
Bicycle frames and components: Ti-811’s combination of strength, lightweight, and corrosion resistance makes it suitable for bicycle frames and parts.
Applications in Ring Form:
Engine components: These are forged and machined into compressor rings, spacers, and other engine parts that require good strength and fatigue resistance.
Bearings and seals: Used for bearing races, seal rings, and other components requiring wear and corrosion resistance.
Pipeline flanges and connectors: They are employed in pipeline flanges and connectors due to their strength and resistance to corrosion in harsh environments.
