Frequently Asked Questions
What titanium grades are available for titanium tubes and pipes?
Titanium tubes and pipes are available in Gr1, Gr2, Gr7, Gr9, and Gr12. Each grade offers different levels of strength, corrosion resistance, and suitability for specific environments. For example, Gr2 is the most widely used commercially pure titanium, while Gr7 and Gr12 offer enhanced corrosion resistance in aggressive media.
What are the standard dimensions available for titanium tubes and pipes?
Standard dimensions range from OD Φ6mm to Φ120mm, with wall thickness (WTH) from 0.1mm to 20mm. Custom lengths and sizes beyond these standard ranges can also be manufactured upon request to meet specific project requirements.
Which international standards do these titanium tubes and pipes comply with?
These products comply with a wide range of international standards, including ASTM B338, ASTM B861, ASTM B862 (USA), GB/T3624 and GB/T3625 (China), ΓOCT standards (Russia), JIS H4631 (Japan), and DIN17861 and DIN17866 (Germany), ensuring global acceptance and traceability.
What industries commonly use titanium tubes and pipes?
Titanium tubes and pipes are widely used across multiple industries including chemical processing, marine engineering, oil and gas, power generation, seawater desalination, heat exchanger manufacturing, firewater systems, and ballast water treatment systems — all environments where corrosion resistance and durability are critical.
Why is titanium preferred over stainless steel for marine and chemical applications?
Titanium offers superior corrosion resistance — especially in chloride-rich environments such as seawater and aggressive chemical media — compared to stainless steel. It is also significantly lighter, has a high strength-to-weight ratio, and maintains excellent mechanical properties at elevated temperatures, making it a preferred material for demanding industrial applications.
Can titanium tubes and pipes be customized to specific sizes or standards?
Yes, custom sizes and specifications are available. Beyond the standard OD and wall thickness ranges listed, bespoke dimensions, lengths, and compliance with specific international or project standards can be accommodated. Please contact us with your technical requirements for a tailored solution.
