China Titanium and Titanium Alloy U Profiles - Quality Products from Trusted Suppliers and Factory
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
Used as flow guides in cages. Resists seawater immersion without rusting for 5 years, 43% lighter than stainless steel, reducing platform load.
Used as edge protection for equipment to prevent juice corrosion. Easy-to-clean surface meeting FDA hygiene standards.
GR5 Titanium Alloy
The main choice for high loads.
- Tensile strength of 895 MPa
- Excellent fatigue resistance
- High temperature resistance up to 400°C
- Perfect for high-stress scenarios
Cabin floor support channels bearing seat/equipment weight. Reduces fuel consumption while withstanding flight vibrations without deforming.
Protects hydraulic system oil pipes from external impact and oil corrosion. Service life is three times longer than steel profiles.
GR7 Titanium Alloy
Specialised for corrosive scenarios.
- Contains palladium for enhanced resistance
- Highly resistant to organic acids
- Resistant to dilute sulfuric acid
- Ideal for harsh chemical environments
Flow guides for dilute acid discharged from reaction kettles to treatment systems. Prevents leaks and protects the ground from acid penetration.
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
What are the primary benefits of using titanium U profiles over traditional metals?
Titanium U profiles combine the structural load-bearing design of channels with the lightweight and corrosion-resistant properties of titanium. This solves common issues like rust and excessive weight found in traditional steel or aluminum components.
Which titanium grade should be used for marine aquaculture and food processing?
GR2 pure titanium is recommended. It is highly ductile, cost-effective, and offers excellent corrosion resistance to seawater and food juices while meeting FDA hygiene standards.
What makes GR5 titanium U profiles suitable for aerospace applications?
GR5 titanium alloy offers an exceptional tensile strength of 895 MPa, high fatigue resistance, and temperature resistance up to 400°C. This allows it to withstand flight vibrations and support heavy loads while reducing overall aircraft weight.
Why is GR7 titanium preferred for harsh chemical workshops?
GR7 titanium alloy contains palladium, which specifically enhances its resistance to highly corrosive environments, organic acids, and dilute sulfuric acid, preventing hazardous leaks.
Can the dimensions of the titanium U profiles be customized?
Yes. All U profiles can be fully customized with channel widths ranging from 10 to 60 mm and wall thicknesses from 1 to 8 mm. Optional edge polishing is also available to save up to 30% of assembly time.
