What Are The Advantages And Characteristics Of Titanium Screws in Such A Wide Range Of Applications?

Nov 24, 2022

In recent years, titanium screws have been used more and more widely. Among the screws of the same specification and model, the price of titanium screws has always been higher than that of other materials, but its performance and application range have irreplaceable advantages over carbon steel screws and stainless steel screws.

Titanium screw products have the following advantages:

1. Low density and high strength: the density of titanium metal is 4.51g/cm3, which is higher than aluminum but lower than steel, copper, and nickel, but the specific strength is the first of the metals mentioned above.

2. High corrosion resistance: titanium is stable in many media, such as oxidizing, neutral, and weak reducing media.

3. The new titanium alloy screws can be utilized for an extended period of time at 600 °C or more due to their heat resistance and low-temperature resistance. Low-temperature titanium alloys, such as titanium alloy BT5-1 (Ti-5Al-2.5Sn), Gr5 (Ti-6Al-4V), and Ti-2.5Zr-1.5Mo, maintain good ductility and toughness at low temperatures of - 196-253 ℃, avoid metal cold brittleness, and are ideal materials for equipment such as cryogenic vessels and storage tanks. Most of the titanium screws produced by fairytitanium are directly supplied to submarines, aviation power, high-end kitchenware, and driverless cars, making them not only resistant to high temperatures but also able to be used normally at ultra-low temperatures.

4. Titanium is a non-magnetic metal that won't become magnetized in a strong magnetic field. It is also non-toxic. With the enhancement of people's health awareness, titanium screws are widely used in medical auxiliary treatment. Titanium screws can be well miscible with human tissues and blood even in the human body. At present, the main products of titanium are heart stents, intramedullary nails, dental implants, therapeutic instruments, and some physical therapy equipment that have contact with the human body. The fasteners in this equipment must also be titanium products.
