Question:

Ta18 titanium tube and tc4 titanium tube What is the difference?

Ta18 titanium tube and tc4 titanium tube What is the difference?

Answer:

Titanium alloy TA18 is a nearly α-type titanium alloy, the composition of Ti-3Al-2.5V, welding performance and cold forming performance is better than TC4, density 4.47g / cubic centimeter, room temperature elastic modulus 118-123GPa, transformation point 925 ℃, hardness 15-17HRC
The TC18 titanium tube is more widely used and can be used for landing gear and structural parts, fasteners, brackets, aircraft accessories, frame, beam structure, Pipes and so on.
TA18 titanium alloy pipe welding performance and cold forming performance is better than TC4, TC4 has a better comprehensive mechanical properties
The composition of the two different titanium alloy TA18 is a nearly α-type titanium alloy, and TC4 is (α + β) titanium alloy
TC4 is Ti-6Al-4V, which is a heat-treated titanium alloy, which has good weldability and forging properties. Used in the manufacture of jet engine compressor blades, impeller, etc., such as landing gear wheels and structural parts, fasteners, brackets, aircraft accessories, frame, beam structure, pipe, is widely used.
