Titanium wire – Grade 2/T40 – Diameter 0.8mm

To put it simply, grade 2 is "soft" compared to grade 5.

The mechanical breakage of grade 2 titanium (pure titanium) is slightly less than that of steel. 

On the other hand, grade 5 titanium (alloy of titanium + aluminum + vanadium) has a mechanical strength 3 times higher, far above steels and stainless steels… while retaining formidable corrosion resistance.

For competition or if you have high mechanical stresses, you need grade 5 titanium.

More information about titanium can be found on our dedicated page.

The biggest difference is the surface finish of the titanium bar.

A titanium bar will have a smooth surface, while a titanium rod will have a rough appearance.

If you order too many material certificates, we will notify you as soon as possible and if your payment is by credit card or Paypal, we will charge you the correct amount.

Each country and organization has its own standard.
Therefore: Grade 5 = TA6V = Ti-6Al-4V = DIN 3.7164 = TC5
