Titanium Forgings

Titanium Forgings

Titanium forgings are forgings created from the formation of molten titanium into various shapes through the use of a compressive force. Titanium forgings produce strong, low-density parts similar to steel, but lighter. Titanium forgings offer high resistance to corrosion by salt water, along with a broad range of acids, alkalis, natural waters and industrial chemicals. Titanium forgings are also highly resistant to erosion. In fact, titanium is more than 20 times more erosion-resistant than copper or nickel alloys. Titanium forgings also provide an excellent strength-to-weight ratio and high heat transfer efficiency.

While titanium forgings have many applications, titanium forgings have shown themselves to be particularly useful in the construction of parts in the aerospace industry. Titanium forgings are also used in a wide range of applications in the aerospace, industrial, marine and commercial industries. Due to the high cost of titanium as a raw material, titanium forgings provide significant cost savings.
