Titanium 6AL 2Sn 4Zr 6Mo Plate

Common Name: Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo Ti-6-2-4-6

Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo Plate is a "rich" alpha-beta alloy which replaces use in aircraft applications and in the oil and gas industry. The materials is more difficult to fabricate than the more "lean" Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo alloy. The alloy is available as wire, bar, billet, and forgings. Grade 6Al 2Sn 4Zr 6Mo titanium alloy possesses high strength at elevated temperatures, good hardenability and good weldability. It is heat-treatable alpha-beta alloy.

Titanium 6-2-4-6 Plate is a heat treatable alloy with excellent strength to temperatures as high as 450 °C. Titanium 6-2-4-6 has limited weldability.

The development of many different alloys has extended the application of titanium in industries ranging from industrial and chemical processing to power generation. This grade possesses good weldability, strength, ductility and formability.

Titanium Corrosion Resistance

Titanium's outstanding corrosion resistance is due to the formation of a tightly adherent oxide film on its surface. When damaged, this thin invisible layer immediately reforms, maintaining a surface which is completely resistant to corrosive attack in sea water and all natural environments. This oxide is so resistant to corrosion that titanium components often look brand new even after years of service.
