Titanium Clad Carbon Steel Description
Titanium Clad Carbon Steel Plates combine titanium and carbon steel using an explosion and rolling process. The titanium and titanium‐alloy plating improves corrosion resistance, wear resistance and resistance to high temperatures and pressures.
Manufacturing Process:
The clad steel is produced by bonding two or more metals into a single plate. Titanium and carbon steel are joined using an explosion and rolling method. Consequently, the titanium and its alloy provide improved resistance against corrosion, abrasion and extreme conditions.
