6Al-4V (AMS4928)

6Al-4V titanium bar is an alpha-beta alloy and one of the most commercially used high strength titanium alloys available.

---

The alloy combines excellent corrosion resistance, good mechanical strength and low density (4.42 kg/dm³). Grade 5 is a heat-treatable titanium product for sections up to 25mm (solution heat-treatment plus ageing), with an elevated temperature operating limit of up to 400°C. With good formability, the material offers good strength to weight ratios and therefore finds use in aerospace and motorsport applications. 6Al-4V (Grade 5) is so popular, it accounts for around 50% of all titanium purchases, worldwide.

Other Characteristics

Weldability of the alloy is generally good if performed on the material in the annealed or solution/partially aged condition. 6Al-4V (Grade 5) benefits from excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine and oil & gas working environments, offering resistance to a wide range of acids and oxidising acids. As a non-toxic material, the alloy also finds extensive use in the medical sector for implants and surgical instruments.

Commercial Applications

6Al-4V (Grade 5) titanium bar finds use in commercial engineering applications, including motorsport components, aerospace components, marine components and chemical processing.
