ASTM F67 GR2 Medical Titanium Bar

ASTM F67 GR2 Medical Titanium Bar – Biocompatible Material Solution for Surgical Implants and Medical Devices

Baoji INT Medical Titanium Co., Ltd. manufactures ASTM F67 GR2 Medical Titanium Bar under strict quality protocols, holding ISO9001:2015, ISO13485:2016, and EU CE certifications. Since 2003, our production facility has supplied medical-grade commercially pure titanium bars with guaranteed tensile strength of 345 MPa minimum, yield strength of 275 MPa minimum, and elongation rates exceeding 20%. These bars serve orthopedic implant manufacturers, dental device fabricators, and surgical instrument producers requiring reliable biocompatibility, exceptional corrosion resistance, and MRI-safe materials. Every batch undergoes rigorous chemical composition verification limiting oxygen to 0.25% maximum and hydrogen to 0.0125% maximum, ensuring consistent osseointegration performance and long-term stability in physiological environments.

Technical Specifications and Material Properties

Why Choose ASTM F67 GR2 Medical Titanium Bar for Implant Manufacturing?

The product performs better in demanding medical applications. It has a natural titanium oxide surface layer. This layer encourages the bone to grow directly onto the implant with no intervening tissue.

Compared to titanium alloys, this grade of commercially pure titanium is surprisingly ductile. Your machining operations become flexible for complicated contouring and bending operations needed in custom plate manufacturing. The non-ferromagnetic nature of the material ensures no artefacts during MRI scanning, allowing patients to undergo diagnostic imaging with no safety concerns.

Our bars are completely immune to body fluid corrosion over decades of implantation. You prevent the hazards of metal ion release which can cause an inflammatory reaction or discolouration of tissue. The strength to weight ratio promotes structural integrity while minimising patient burden in load bearing applications.

Advanced Processing Capabilities for Custom Requirements

Our integrated manufacturing solutions are designed to meet your exact dimensional needs. We provide centerless ground bars with surface roughness less than Ra 0.8µm, free from oxidised skin layers that may affect the accuracy of CNC machining.

Cold working and annealing techniques are employed to ensure homogeneity of grain structure over the range of bar diameters from 6mm to 200mm. Custom length cutting services from 500mm to 6000mm are available with no additional lead time penalty.

Heat treatment treatments are performed per defined procedures verified for stress reduction and recrystallisation control. Each production run is ultrasonically inspected in accordance with AMS 2631 standards, identifying internal discontinuities prior to the material’s arrival at your plant.

Quality Control and Certification Standards

Every ASTM F67 GR2 Medical Titanium Bar shipment includes comprehensive material test reports documenting chemical analysis results from inductively coupled plasma spectrometry. Mechanical testing laboratories verify tensile properties using ASTM E8 methodologies.

Our quality management system avoids the generation of alpha cases via controlled atmospheric processing. You get bars free of brittle surface coatings that would reduce fatigue resistance to cyclic physiological loads.

Third-party inspection services will examine dimensional tolerances, straightness measures and surface quality against your purchase specifications. Traceability is maintained from the procurement of raw materials through final packaging to satisfy the audit requirements of medical device manufacturers.

Applications Across Medical Device Categories

These bars are used by orthopaedic implant makers to make bone plates, intramedullary nails and spinal fixation rods. The ductility of the material allows screw blanks to be produced by cold heading procedures without cracking.

The product is machined by dental device manufacturers into unique abutments, implant bodies and framework components. Great polishing properties give you mirror like surfaces for soft tissue compatibility to enhance your finishing operations.

This grade is specified by surgical instrument manufactures for retractors, forceps and specialised tools that require resistance to steam sterilisation. The material resists degradation and maintains its dimensional stability after many autoclave cycles.

Conformability of the material is required to match patient-specific anatomy in craniofacial reconstructive applications. With higher-strength alloys, you cannot achieve complex 3D structures with incremental forming procedures.

Procurement Guidance and Supply Chain Support

Professional purchasing teams should verify supplier certifications to ISO13485:2016 medical device standards. Document interstitial element control measures, especially hydrogen monitoring processes that avoid embrittlement.

State clearly surface finish requirements, either rolled, peeled or ground. To help with your production planning, we have normal lead times for common diameters of 4-6 weeks, plus expedited options for urgent jobs.

Minimum order quantities begin at 100 kilograms per specification, appropriate for prototype development budgets. You will get reductions in material costs at the 500kg and 1000kg volume pricing levels.

We hold strategic stocks of the popular sizes (10mm, 12mm, 16mm, 20mm) to rapidly react to unanticipated changes in demand. Our proven backup sourcing partnerships enhance your supply chain resilience.

Product Technology and Production Process
Hot rolling and forging techniques that enhance the mechanical properties, ensuring superior strength and toughness.
Ultrasonic testing to detect flaws and ensure 100% reliability.
Strict quality control at every stage of production, meeting and exceeding international medical standards like ISO9001:2015 and ISO13485:2016.

FAQ

Q: What distinguishes ASTM F67 GR2 from higher-grade alternatives?

A: GR2 offers optimal ductility for applications requiring material forming or contouring. While GR3 and GR4 provide increased strength, they sacrifice elongation properties critical for plate bending operations. GR2 maintains the best balance of biocompatibility and workability for non-load-bearing and moderate-load scenarios.

Q: How does hydrogen content affect implant performance?

A: Excess hydrogen causes embrittlement, reducing ductility and creating fracture risks under physiological stress. Our maximum 0.0125% limit ensures your finished devices withstand cyclic loading without premature failure. This specification proves especially critical for thin-section components experiencing bending forces.

Q: Can this material undergo MRI imaging safely?

A: Yes, the product produces minimal imaging artifacts compared to stainless steel alternatives. Patients with implants fabricated from this material safely undergo MRI and CT procedures without heating hazards or significant diagnostic image distortion.

Q: What surface treatments optimize machining efficiency?

A: Centerless grinding removes the oxidized alpha case layer, exposing fresh material for cutting tool engagement. This preparation reduces tool wear rates by 40-60% compared to as-rolled stock. Request polished finishes for high-speed CNC operations requiring dimensional precision below ±0.02mm.

Q: Which certifications must accompany material shipments?

A: Demand EN 10204 3.1 material test reports documenting heat lot chemistry, mechanical test results, and ASTM F67 compliance statements. ISO13485-certified suppliers provide traceability documentation meeting FDA and EU MDR regulatory requirements for medical device component sourcing.
