Application

Aerospace: Structural components, landing gear, engine mounts, fasteners, and other parts requiring high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance.
Chemical Processing: Shafts, fasteners, pump components, and other parts exposed to corrosive chemicals and harsh environments.
Marine: Propeller shafts, fasteners, rigging components, and other parts for seawater applications.
Medical: Surgical instruments, orthopaedic implants, dental implants, and other medical devices requiring biocompatibility and corrosion resistance.
Automotive: Connecting rods, valves, springs, and other high-performance parts for weight reduction and improved performance.
Industrial Machinery: Shafts, gears, fasteners, and other components requiring high strength and wear resistance.
Sports Equipment: Bicycle frames, golf club shafts, tennis rackets, and other sporting goods benefit from lightweight and high strength.
Aircraft Landing Gear: Titanium bars are used for landing gear components due to their high strength, fatigue resistance, and lightweight properties.
Chemical Processing Pump Shafts: Titanium bars are utilized for pump shafts in corrosive chemical environments, ensuring long-term reliability and minimizing maintenance downtime.
Medical Implants: Titanium bars are machined and shaped into orthopaedic implants like hip stems and bone screws, providing biocompatible and durable solutions for patients.
