CP Titanium – Commercially Pure Titanium Introduction
Commercially pure titanium (CP-Titan) is divided into four grades. This categorisation is based on its corrosion resistance, ductility and strength.
Titan CP4 - Grade 1
Commercially pure Titanium Grade 1 is the most formable grade. It demonstrates high ductility, good cold workability and corrosion resistance, reliable weldability and high impact toughness.
Applications
Automotive desalination, architecture, manufacturing and chlor production, medical applications, dimensionally stable anodes, maritime applications
Standards
ASME SB-363, ASME SB-265, ASME SB-337, ASME SB-381, ASME SB-337, ASME SB-338, ASME SB-348, ASME SB-338, ASTM F-67,
Available Forms
Sheets, flanges, bars, weld wire, forgings
Titan CP3 - Grade 2
Commercially pure Titanium Grade 2 offers high cold workability and moderate strength. It meets set criteria for corrosion and oxidation resistance and provides reliable weldability.
Applications
Chemical processing and chlor production, automotive manufacturing, power generation, aerospace, desalination, architecture, maritime applications, hydrocarbon processing, medical applications
Standards
ASME SB-363, AMS 4902, ASME SB-265, ASME SB-381, ASME SB-338, ASME SB-348, AMS 4942, ASTM F-67, ASME SB-337, AMS 4921, ASME SB-338, ASME SB-337
Available Forms
Bars, forgings, tubes, flanges, fittings, sheets, plates, weld wire, tubes, wire
Titan CP2 - Grade 3
Commercially pure Titanium Grade 3 is less formable and exhibits higher strength than Grades 1 and 2. It is applied in aerospace and industrial contexts that require moderate strength. It meets established criteria for corrosion resistance.
Applications
Architecture, chemical processing and chlor production, aerospace, automotive manufacturing, maritime applications, desalination, medical applications, hydrocarbon processing, power generation
Standards
ASME SB-363, ASME SB-348, ASME SB-338, ASTM F-67, AMS 4921, ASME SB-265, AMS 4902, ASME SB-337, ASME SB-381, ASME SB-337, AMS 4942, ASME SB-338
Available Forms
Forgings, flanges, bars, tubes, plates, sheets, weld wire, fittings, tubes, wire
Titan CP1 - Grade 4
Commercially pure Titanium Grade 4 has higher strength than Grades 2 and 3. It tolerates cold forming, although it is less ductile. It meets strict corrosion resistance requirements in various environments. It is utilised in industrial, aerospace and medical engineering applications where high strength is required.
Applications
Aerospace, marine, industrial processing, chemical procedures, medical engineering
Standards
ASME SB-363, ASME SB-337, ASME SB-381, ASME SB-265, ASTM F-67, AMS 4901, ASME SB-348, AMS 4921, ASME SB-338
Available Forms
Rods, sheets, forgings, wire, weld wire
