Considerations

What engineers should know.

  • Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5) is the most widely specified titanium alloy across aerospace and medical applications.

  • Lower material removal rates than aluminum or stainless — programming and tooling strategies matter for cost control.

  • Surface finish and handling controlled to avoid contamination on critical components.

Applications

Typical applications.

  • Aerospace structural brackets
  • Medical instrument components
  • High-strength fittings
  • Heat-tolerant hardware

Finishing

Surface finishing options.

Anodize and passivation coordinated through qualified outside processors when specified.

FAQ

Titanium — FAQs

The questions engineering and procurement teams ask most often before a first quote.

Do you machine other titanium grades?

Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5) is the most common. Other grades can be sourced for qualified programs — discuss requirements at RFQ.

Why is titanium more expensive to machine?

Material cost is higher and cycle times are longer due to lower removal rates and specific tooling requirements. DFM review can identify opportunities to manage cost on titanium parts.
