China Titanium and Titanium Alloy U Profiles - Leading Suppliers and Factory for Gr2, Gr5, and Gr7
Products Detail
Titanium and titanium alloy U profiles leverage the load-bearing advantages of channel-type structures and the material advantages of titanium to address the pain points of traditional metal channel parts, such as corrosion and weight. They are ideal for support, protection and flow guidance in the aerospace, marine and chemical industries, among others. The applications of different grades are clear:
GR2 Pure Titanium
Suitable for light-duty scenarios
- High ductility & easy to bend
- Corrosion-resistant to fresh water, seawater and weak alkalis
- Highly cost-effective
U profiles (width: 20–40 mm) used as flow guides in cages. Resist seawater immersion without rusting for 5 years, 43% lighter than stainless steel, reducing platform load.
U profiles (width: 15–30 mm) used as edge protection to prevent corrosion from juices. Easy-to-clean surface meeting FDA hygiene standards.
GR5 Titanium Alloy
Main choice for high loads
- Tensile strength of 895 MPa
- Exceptional fatigue resistance
- High temperature resistance up to 400°C
- Suitable for high-stress scenarios
U profiles (width: 30–50 mm) used as cabin floor support channels. Lightweight design reduces fuel consumption while withstanding flight vibrations.
U-profile channels (width: 25–40 mm) wrap around hydraulic pipes to avoid impact and resist oil corrosion. Service life is 3 times longer than steel.
GR7 Titanium Alloy
Specialised for corrosive scenarios
- Contains palladium for superior acid resistance
- Resistant to organic acids and dilute sulfuric acid
- Ideal for harsh chemical environments
U profiles (width: 20–40 mm) used as flow guides for discharged dilute acid, directing it safely to the treatment system without leakage or ground damage.
Customization Available: All U profiles can be customised in terms of channel width (10–60 mm) and wall thickness (1–8 mm). The channel edge can be polished as required for direct assembly, saving 30% of processing time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Titanium U profiles combine the structural load-bearing benefits of channel designs with titanium's unique material properties. They solve common industry issues like heavy weight and corrosion, offering a lightweight alternative (e.g., 43% lighter than stainless steel) with a significantly longer service life.
GR2 pure titanium U profiles are ideal for light-duty applications. They offer high ductility, easy bending, and excellent corrosion resistance to fresh water, seawater, and weak alkalis, making them highly cost-effective for marine aquaculture and food processing environments.
GR5 titanium alloy is selected for high-load scenarios due to its exceptional tensile strength of 895 MPa, fatigue resistance, and ability to withstand high temperatures up to 400°C. This makes it perfect for aerospace cabin supports and heavy machinery protective channels.
GR7 titanium alloy contains palladium, which specifically enhances its resistance to organic acids and dilute sulfuric acid. This makes it highly reliable for directing acidic waste in chemical workshops without risking leaks or ground contamination.
Yes. All U profiles can be customized with channel widths ranging from 10 to 60 mm and wall thicknesses from 1 to 8 mm. Additionally, edges can be polished upon request to allow for direct assembly, saving up to 30% of processing time.
