Chemical Composition: Titanium Grade 2 (UNS R50400)

Titanium Grade 2 is a commercially pure titanium grade valued for excellent corrosion resistance, ductility and weldability.

Element Weight Percentage (%)
Titanium (Ti) Balance
Oxygen (O) 0.25 max
Iron (Fe) 0.30 max
Carbon (C) 0.08 max
Nitrogen (N) 0.03 max
Hydrogen (H) 0.015 max

*Composition limits are indicative for the listed grade family; applicable product specifications may vary depending on valve component and product form.

Mechanical Properties: Titanium Grade 2 (UNS R50400)

Titanium Grade 2 offers a strong combination of corrosion resistance, ductility and moderate mechanical strength.

Property Typical / Minimum Value
Tensile Strength 345 MPa min
0.2% Yield Strength 275 MPa min
Elongation 20% min
Hardness Approx. 160 HB max
Density Approx. 4.51 g/cm3

*Mechanical requirements depend on product form, heat treatment and applicable ASTM/ASME specification. Confirm final values against the material specification used for the pressure relief valve component.

Chemical Composition: Titanium Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V, UNS R56400)

Titanium Grade 5 is an alpha-beta alloy containing aluminium and vanadium. It is the most widely used titanium alloy, offering far higher strength than commercially pure grades at the same low density.

Element Weight Percentage (%)
Aluminium (Al) 5.50 - 6.75
Vanadium (V) 3.50 - 4.50
Iron (Fe) 0.40 max
Oxygen (O) 0.20 max
Carbon (C) 0.08 max
Nitrogen (N) 0.05 max
Hydrogen (H) 0.015 max
Residuals (each / total) 0.10 max / 0.40 max
Titanium (Ti) Balance

*Composition limits are as per the applicable ASTM/ASME specification for UNS R56400; actual limits may vary depending on valve component and product form.

Mechanical Properties: Titanium Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V, UNS R56400)

Titanium Grade 5 gives an exceptional strength to weight ratio with good corrosion resistance, suiting it to weight-critical offshore and subsea relief valve applications.

Property Typical / Minimum Value
Tensile Strength 895 MPa min
0.2% Yield Strength 828 MPa min
Elongation 10% min
Hardness Approx. 334 HB
Density Approx. 4.43 g/cm³

*Mechanical requirements depend on product form, heat treatment and applicable ASTM/ASME specification. Confirm final values against the material specification used for the pressure relief valve component.
