Grade: Grade 5
Formula: Ti 90/Al 6/V 4
Form: Rod
Material: Titanium/Aluminum/Vanadium
Commodity: Alloys
Grade 5 Titanium/Aluminum/Vanadium Alloy Rod (Ti90/Al6/V4) is known for its outstanding mechanical strength, excellent fatigue resistance, and superior corrosion protection, making it the most widely utilized titanium alloy in engineering applications. The α-β microstructure, stabilized by aluminum and vanadium, allows a unique combination of high tensile strength with workable ductility and weldability. These rods are applied extensively in aerospace, biomedical, marine, and automotive industries where both lightweight efficiency and durability under cyclic loading are required. Specific applications include aircraft landing gear and engine components, orthopedic implants and surgical instruments, and high-performance automotive connecting rods. In research, Ti-6Al-4V rods play an essential role in exploring thermo-mechanical treatments, alloy optimization for cost reduction, and novel surface treatments to enhance wear resistance and biocompatibility. Their balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and adaptability ensures that they remain a cornerstone in both industrial applications and advanced materials science.
