Product Overview
Grade 5 titanium wire is the most widely used titanium alloy wire, offering high strength, good corrosion resistance, and excellent strength-to-weight ratio. It is commonly specified for aerospace, medical, and high-performance industrial components. Grade 5 wire is used for fasteners, springs, formed-wire parts, and as feedstock for joining processes where Ti-6Al-4V is required.

Notes and Precautions
- Grade 5 has significantly higher strength than CP grades; confirm forming feasibility and required heat treatment route.
- For welding, use appropriate Ti-6Al-4V filler and strict inert gas shielding per your WPS to prevent contamination.
- Mechanical properties depend on diameter, condition, and heat treatment; specify tensile, elongation, and hardness targets when ordering.
