5 mm titanium sheet

5 mm Titanium Sheet for Medical and Industrial Applications – High Strength, Biocompatible Solutions

Baoji INT Medical Titanium Co., Ltd. offers precision-engineered 5 mm titanium sheet manufactured to meet stringent international standards for medical, aerospace, and industrial applications. We specialise in the production of medical grade titanium products, with over 30 years of experience in the titanium business since our founding in 2003, and are certified under ISO9001:2015, ISO13485:2016 and EU CE standards. Our product is highly biocompatible, has a high strength to weight ratio (>140 MPa/g·cm³) and is corrosion resistant, ensuring reliable performance in harsh settings. Each sheet undergoes thorough quality control, including chemical composition analysis and ultrasonic testing, to ensure material integrity for surgical implants, aircraft components and precision manufacturing applications.

Material Specifications and Performance Parameters

Our product is offered in commercially pure titanium (Grade 2) and Ti6Al4V ELI (Grade 5) alloy forms. Each version has different mechanical qualities that are adapted to various application needs.

he Grade 5 alloy is closely controlled for aluminium (5.5-6.75%) and vanadium (3.5-4.5%) and the oxygen level is limited to less than 0.20% (to prevent brittleness). Such precise compositional control enables excellent performance in load bearing medical implants.

Superior Biocompatibility for Medical Applications

In medical applications, materials must be able to blend effortlessly with the human physiology. The titanium sheets are particularly compatible with biological tissues because of the very inert oxide surface layer that is immediately reformed after injury.

The modulus of titanium is around 110 GPa, which is half the modulus of steel. Stainless steel has a modulus eight times that of bone. This biomechanical similarity to bone greatly lowers the effects of stress shielding which may contribute to osteoporosis around implants. The decreased stiffness permits the fractures to mend with appropriate callus formation so that radiographic measurement of the healing progress becomes possible.

This compatibility is beneficial for clinical surgical equipment, orthopaedic plates, spinal fusion devices and prosthetic components. Our sheets have been treated to prevent the formation of alpha case. Alpha case is the brittle surface layer rich in oxygen that can impact the safety of an implant.

Exceptional Strength-to-Weight Performance

Titanium possesses the highest strength-to-weight ratio of all known metals, making it indispensable for weight-critical applications. A 5 mm titanium sheet in Grade 5 configuration delivers tensile strength exceeding 860 MPa while weighing 40% less than equivalent steel sheets.

This advantage is used by aerospace manufacturers in aircraft fuselages, wing structures, tail assemblies and engine exhaust systems. The material exhibits structural integrity during high temperature fluctuations and cyclic loading. At the military level this combination of low weight and fatigue resistance is used for fasteners, missile components, and airframe structures.

In the fabrication of sports equipment, this property enables the manufacture of bike frames, ski poles and reinforcements for the skateboard deck. The combination of titanium and carbon fibre composites yields higher impact resistance while keeping the parts light and so retaining agility.

Advanced Corrosion Resistance

The naturally occurring passive titanium dioxide coating that forms on exposed surfaces provides excellent corrosion resistance in chloride-rich conditions, including prolonged exposure to human fluids, seawater and industrial chemicals.

This property is important for long term implantable medical devices such as pacemaker housings, dental implants and joint replacement components . Surgical instrument trays, bed frames, wheelchair chassis and other hospital equipment retain their appearance and functionality after decades of sanitisation cycles.

Titanium is resistant to acid and alkaline solutions and is well-suited for petrochemical processing equipment. Our sheets are used to produce heat exchangers, reactor vessels and valve components that last longer than typical alloy alternatives.

Precision Manufacturing and Quality Assurance

All products are tested under rigorous quality control procedures in accordance with international aerospace and medical device standards. Our multi-stage inspection method includes chemical composition verification by optical emission spectrometry to ensure that the alloy element concentrations fall within the specified window.

Ultrasonic testing following AMS 2631 and ASTM E2375 standards is used to discover subsurface defects, laminations and high density inclusions before export. Mechanical testing is used to verify tensile properties and ductility using routine bend tests, often with bend radii of 4T to 5T, even with the natural spring-back features of titanium.

Microstructural assessment is necessary for optimal alpha beta phase distribution in Ti6Al4V alloys. Any alpha case formation is removed manually or chemically milled to avoid brittle failure modes. Hydrogen levels are maintained below 0.015% to preclude the potential of delayed hydrogen embrittlement in important structural applications.

Customization and Processing Capabilities

Our precision die forging, CNC machining and thermal forming methods, backed by our superior manufacturing infrastructure, allow us to meet a wide range of customer needs. The popular sizes are 1000×2000 mm and 1219×2438 mm for the majority of applications. Custom sizes are manufactured to suit your projects’ needs.

We offer value-added services including precision cutting, edge preparation, surface treatment and forming operations. We supply turning and milling services to make joint stem blanks, dynamic hip screws and prosthetic accessories to close tolerances for orthopaedic implant manufacturers in need of component blanks.

We provide technical consulting and variable production volumes for OEM agreements. Our engineering team works with customers to determine the best materials, thickness specs and production parameters for their intended uses.

FAQ

Q: Why is titanium more expensive than steel options?

A: Titanium extraction and processing is a sophisticated and energy consuming process, including reduction of titanium tetrachloride by the Kroll process. It has a very high melting point , it reacts with oxygen at high temperatures , and it must be machined differently . All of these add to the cost of producing it . However, lifecycle cost analysis frequently favours titanium because of the longer service life, less maintenance and no need for coatings.

Q: Can you get a good weld on titanium sheets?

A: Yes. Titanium is very weldable if properly shielded with inert gas to prevent contamination. TIG and plasma arc welding methods provide excellent quality junctions with strength close to that of the base metal. We recommend that an argon purge gas be used on both sides during welding to minimise contamination by the atmosphere which causes brittleness.Q: How does titanium compare to stainless steel for medical implants?

A: Titanium offers superior biocompatibility with virtually no allergic response compared to nickel-containing stainless steels. Its modulus of elasticity more closely matches bone, reducing stress shielding effects. While Grade 12.9 steel provides higher absolute tensile strength, titanium's strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance make it preferable for permanent implants.

Q: What surface treatments are available for titanium sheets?

A: Common treatments include anodizing for color coding and enhanced corrosion resistance, sandblasting for improved surface roughness promoting bone integration, and chemical milling for alpha case removal. Passivation treatments optimize the oxide layer for maximum biocompatibility.
