Titanium plates can have different surface states

Titanium plates can have different surface states, depending on the requirements of production and processing and the needs of the application. The following are some common titanium plate surface states:

1. Hot-rolled surface: Hot rolling is a common titanium plate manufacturing method. Hot-rolled plates usually have a rough surface and need to undergo subsequent processing and surface treatment to meet specific needs.

2. Cold-rolled surface: Cold rolling is to obtain a smoother and more uniform surface quality by rolling titanium plates at room temperature. Cold-rolled plates usually have a smoother surface and are suitable for some applications that require higher surface quality.

3. Pickling surface: Pickling is a surface treatment method that can remove oxides, dirt and poor surface on the surface of titanium plates. This can improve the appearance and corrosion resistance of titanium plates. titanium alloy foil / titanium forged disc / Grade 23 Ti-6Al-4V ELI Titanium Sheet

4. Polished surface: Polishing is to treat the surface of titanium plates by mechanical or chemical methods to give it a highly smooth and reflective appearance. Polished surfaces are often used in applications that require a delicate appearance.

5. Sandblasted surface: Sandblasting is to obtain a uniformly rough surface by spraying sand on the surface of titanium plates to increase surface friction and wear resistance. This surface is often used in some applications that require anti-slip or increased surface roughness.

6. Anodized surface: Anodizing is a surface treatment method that forms an oxide layer on the surface of titanium plates, increasing their corrosion resistance and hardness. This treatment is often used in some specific electronic and chemical applications.

7. Each surface state has different characteristics and application areas. Choosing the appropriate surface state depends on your specific needs, such as appearance, corrosion resistance, friction performance, and assembly requirements. Before purchasing titanium plates, it is recommended to discuss your needs with the material supplier or manufacturer to ensure that the appropriate surface state is selected.

Titanium tube: Lightweight and high-strength metal material

As a lightweight and high-strength metal material, titanium tube has been widely used in modern industry. Its light specific gravity is one of its most prominent features, making it stand out among many metal materials.

The specific gravity of titanium tube is relatively small, which means that the product of the same volume is lighter than traditional steel tube. This lightweight property gives it a significant advantage in situations where the weight of the structure needs to be reduced. Whether in the aerospace field or chemical equipment, using it can effectively reduce the weight of the overall structure, thereby improving the performance and efficiency of the equipment. ASTM B861 25*1.2mm Titanium Tube For Chemical / Grade 1 Pure Titanium Tube / Gr7 Ti-0.2Pd Titanium Pipe

The lightweight property does not mean that the titanium tube compromises in strength. On the contrary, it has excellent mechanical properties, and its strength is much higher than other lightweight metals. This good combination of high strength and light weight allows it to perform well under harsh conditions such as high pressure and high temperature, and can operate stably for a long time.

In addition, titanium tubes also have good corrosion resistance. Because the titanium element has stable chemical properties and is not easy to react with other substances, it can resist the erosion of various chemical corrosive media and extend its service life.
