Daxun's ASTM B338 Grade 2 titanium welded pipe is meticulously crafted from premium annealed flat-rolled steel plate or steel strip, utilizing the state-of-the-art automatic arc welding (TIG) process. The comprehensive production stages encompass: titanium plate uncoiling, precision shearing, seamless butt welding, thorough cleaning, advanced pipe forming, TIG welding, rigorous eddy current testing, precise pre-sizing, controlled annealing, precision reducing and sizing, straightening, secondary eddy current testing, caliper marking, accurate cutting, ultrasonic examination, hydrostatic testing, final inspection, and meticulous packaging. To ensure peak performance, welded pipes undergo at least one stress relief heat treatment post-forming and welding. Note, Daxun employs no filler materials during the welding process.

Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Pipe - Premier Grade 5 Titanium Tube

Titanium Alloy - (UNS R56400), a benchmark of excellence.
Introduction
DAXUN Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Tube, Grade 5 (UNS R56400), is acclaimed as the most versatile and sought-after titanium alloy. This duplex alpha+beta alloy integrates aluminum as the alpha stabilizer and vanadium as the beta stabilizer, offering exceptional high-strength capabilities at temperatures as low as 800°F (427°C). The Grade 5 alloy is extensively utilized for annealing, solution treating, and aging applications. Its robust attributes make it ideal for compressor blades, disks, and rings in jet engines; vital fuselage, and space capsule components; pressure vessels; *** cases; helicopter rotor hubs; fasteners; and critical high strength-to-weight ratio forgings.
The alloy undergoes initial melting using advanced techniques such as vacuum arc (VAR), electron beam (EB), or plasma arc hearth melting (PAM), followed by meticulous remelting in one or two vacuum arc steps to ensure superior quality.

4. Aging: Conducted at 975 -1,025°F; (524 - 552°C) for 4 to 8 hours, followed by air cooling to enhance material properties.

Optimum Properties

Small cross sections achieve rapid quenching in the solution-treated and aged condition, while larger cross-section sizes or delayed quenching may yield suboptimal properties.

Hardness

Typical hardness in the annealed condition is Rockwell C 30-34, elevating to approximately Rockwell C 35-39 in the solution and aged condition for enhanced durability.

Forgeability/Formability

Behold the DAXUN Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Tube, Grade 5, an epitome of strength and precision. This exceptional Grade 5 Titanium Tube is meticulously forged at a searing 1,750°F (954°C) with a final touch at 1,450°F (788°C). To achieve unparalleled outcomes, a substantial reduction of at least 35% is highly recommended.

Experience the resilience of the DAXUN Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Tube, Grade 5, even in challenging conditions. Despite being difficult to form at room temperature, this tube excels when annealed. Intricate forming operations like bending or stretching can be seamlessly performed on the annealed material at elevated temperatures up to 1,200°F (649°C) without compromising its impeccable mechanical properties.

Weldability

The DAXUN Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Tube, Grade 5, boasts exceptional weldability. Whether in the annealed state or solution and partially aged conditions, this tube welds effortlessly. Aging can be achieved during a meticulous post-weld heat treatment process.

Exercise caution to prevent contamination by oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. Fusion welding is best performed in an inert gas-filled chamber or with an inert gas tail shield over the molten metal and adjacent hot zones. Spot welding, seam welding, and flash welding can be conducted without a protective atmosphere, ensuring versatility and reliability.

Special Considerations

The DAXUN Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Tube, Grade 5, demands attention to detail. Improper pickling and the absorption of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon during processes such as forging, heat treating, and brazing may lead to hydrogen contamination. This can diminish ductility and adversely affect notch sensitivity and formability. Handle with care to maintain the tube's exceptional properties.
