ATI 425 titanium approved for aerospace applications.(METALS/POLYMERS/CERAMICS)(Brief article)

Advanced Materials & Processes, April, 2007

Titanium alloy ATI 425 has received Aerospace Material Specification approval for aerospace components, reports ATI Wah Chang, Albany, Ore. According to AMS 6946, the new specification for titanium alloy 4Al-2.5V-1.5Fe sheet, strip, and plate is suitable for parts requiring strength at temperatures up to 750?F (400?C).

The alloy also has weldability, ductility and cold formability, as well as superplastic forming capabilities. The approval of ATI 425 titanium provides an alternative to the most common high strength titanium alloy. ATI 425 titanium offers strength comparable to that of Ti-6Al-4V, but is both hot and cold workable. Research and development is ongoing, and new applications in the aerospace, defense, and industrial markets emerge on a regular basis....
