Titanium screws are so widely used, what are their advantages and characteristics?

In recent years, the application of titanium screws has become more and more extensive. Among the screws of the same specifications and models, 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 foil grade 5 / titanium metric screw / Gr2 Pure Titanium Plate

Titanium screw products have the following advantages:

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

2. High corrosion resistance: Titanium is very stable in many media, such as titanium is the most corrosion-resistant in oxidizing, neutral and weakly reducing media.

3. Heat resistance and low temperature resistance: New titanium alloy screws can be used for a long time at 600℃ or higher. Low-temperature titanium alloys represented by titanium alloys TA7 (Ti-5Al-2.5Sn), TC4 (Ti-6Al-4V) and Ti-2.5Zr-1.5Mo maintain good ductility and toughness at low temperatures of -196-253℃, avoiding metal cold brittleness, and are ideal materials for low-temperature containers, tanks and other equipment. Most of the titanium screws produced by Shishitong Metal are directly supplied to submarines, aviation power, high-end kitchen utensils, 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, non-toxic, and will not be magnetized in a large magnetic field. With the enhancement of everyone's health awareness, titanium screws are widely used in medical auxiliary treatment. Titanium screws can have good compatibility with human tissues and blood even in the human body. At present, the main titanium products are heart stents, intramedullary nails, dental implants, therapeutic devices and some physical therapy equipment that have more contact with the human body. The fastener components in these devices must also be titanium products.
