Titanium Grade 5 light weight high resistant fasteners
Titanium fasteners has got higher tensile strength, more than other materials, even at increasing temperatures. But the main property of this material is the low density, around 40% less then carbon or stainless steel. It is also extremely resistant to seawater and galvanic corrosion, making it ideal for many aeronautical and naval applications.
Application:
This light weight high risistant fasteners, are used in a limited number of applications, because the high cost, where their high strength to weight ratio, excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking, high corrosion resistance, and good fatigue strength are desired. In addition to salt water protection, also resists attack by pure hydrocarbons, and most chlorinated and fluorinated hydrocarbons. Titanium fasteners are also the only metals in the chemical processing industry for handling wet chlorine gas and chlorine compounds in aqueous solutions. Moreover are also fully resistant to solutions of chlorides, hypochlorites, chlorates, perchlorates and chlorine dioxide.
