Titanium Grade 1
Titanium Grade 1 is the softest and most ductile of all commercially pure titanium grades. Known for its outstanding corrosion resistance, excellent formability, and superior weldability, it is widely used in industries such as chemical processing, desalination, marine, medical, and aerospace. Its low oxygen content gives it the highest ductility and impact toughness among titanium grades.
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Performs exceptionally well in oxidizing and reducing environments, including chlorides and acidic solutions.
- Superior Formability: Easily formed into complex shapes and structures, even at room temperature.
- High Ductility: Offers excellent flexibility and elongation under stress.
- Outstanding Weldability: Can be welded with ease using standard welding techniques.
- Biocompatibility: Safe for medical and dental use, non-toxic, and non-reactive.
