1.What is Ti-6Al-4V Grade 5 titanium alloy wire?
Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5) is an alpha-beta titanium alloy containing 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium. It is the most common titanium alloy, known for its high strength, corrosion resistance, and versatility in wire form.
2.What are the main properties of this titanium wire?
It offers high tensile strength (895+ MPa), excellent corrosion and fatigue resistance, low density, good weldability, and biocompatibility. It can be heat treated for further strength enhancement.
3.How does Grade 5 compare to commercially pure titanium?
Grade 5 is significantly stronger and more heat-treatable than pure grades (like Grade 2), while retaining similar corrosion resistance—making it ideal for structural and high-stress applications.
4.Is this wire suitable for medical implants?
Yes, Ti-6Al-4V Grade 5 has excellent biocompatibility and is widely used in orthopedic implants, though Grade 23 (ELI) is preferred for some extra-low interstitial requirements.
