Titanium tube is half the weight of steel, so because of its lower mass, it can be just as strong (as steel) at half the weight. Seamless titanium tubing is characterized by a high strength-to-weight ratio. It is highly ductile in an oxygen-free environment and has a low density. Titanium pipe has a very high melting point, even greater than 1650 degrees Celsius or 3000 degrees Fahrenheit. Titanium tubing has the chemical symbol Ti. ASTM B338 titanium tubing is a paramagnetic alloy. Titanium welded tube is cost prohibitive compared to aluminum.
Titanium seamless & welded tube is twice as strong as aluminum & ASME SB338 titanium tube is about 60% denser than aluminum. Titanium NCF tube is a low density and high strength silver colored metal. Titanium microtubing is strong and lightweight and is ideal for automotive, aerospace, military and industrial applications. ASTM B338 titanium boiler tubing is considered one of the strongest metals available. These applications range from medical implants to aircraft and ships. Pure titanium condenser tubes are strong and corrosion resistant.
Titanium tube we generally divided into two kinds, one is extruded class called seamless titanium tube; one is welded class called welded titanium tube. The titanium tube in the picture is welded titanium tube, also belongs to the titanium material we often processed and supplied to a foreign country.
Welded titanium pipe production process is short, high production efficiency, pipe length is not restricted, suitable for specifications, varieties, grades more single, large batch of thin-walled pipe production. In recent years, state-owned enterprises and private enterprises have been built and ready to build the welded pipe production cache of more than 80, welded titanium tubes in the proportion of titanium tubes will gradually increase. Titanium plate and titanium alloy thin-walled welded pipe manufacturing difficulty, is a high-end products. With the breakthrough of domestic titanium strip production technology, China has successfully mass produced titanium welded pipe. Titanium welded pipe production process: titanium strip coil - slitting forming - welding - shaping and sizing - heat treatment - straightening - eddy current, ultrasonic testing - gas tightness testing -Finished welded pipe. Roll continuous molding machine molding methods. For titanium welded pipe, W-bending forming method is more applicable with good molding quality. Edge bending method is suitable for the production of welded pipes with a diameter greater than 200mm. Welding methods for pipe seams are mainly high-frequency welding hand mouth Argon arc welding. Welding and welded seams in more than 450T, are required to enter the argon gas protection.
