Description
ASTM B861 TC4 Ti-6Al-4V Seamless Titanium Alloy Tube for Aerospace and Medical Applications
Product Overview

ASTM B861 TC4 Ti-6Al-4V Seamless Titanium Alloy Tube is a high-strength titanium alloy tubing product designed for demanding industrial applications where low weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and reliable performance are required.

TC4 is commonly known as Ti-6Al-4V, corresponding to Grade 5 titanium alloy / UNS R56400. As an alpha-beta titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V provides an excellent combination of strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, fatigue performance, and fabrication capability.

Manufactured as a seamless titanium alloy tube, this product is suitable for applications in the aerospace and medical industries, as well as chemical processing, energy, marine, and other high-performance engineering applications.

The tubes can be supplied in different outside diameters, wall thicknesses, lengths, surface conditions, and heat-treated conditions according to customer requirements and applicable specifications.

Key Features and Advantages
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio

Ti-6Al-4V offers high mechanical strength at a relatively low density compared with many conventional engineering metals. This makes it particularly useful where weight reduction is an important design requirement.

Excellent Corrosion Resistance

Titanium naturally forms a stable oxide layer that provides strong protection against many corrosive environments. Grade 5 titanium is therefore suitable for demanding industrial and chemical applications.

Excellent Aerospace Performance

The combination of high strength, low density, corrosion resistance, and fatigue performance makes Ti-6Al-4V one of the most widely used titanium alloys for aerospace components and systems.

Good Fatigue Performance

Ti-6Al-4V provides good fatigue resistance when properly processed and used within appropriate design and operating conditions.

Seamless Construction

The seamless tube structure eliminates a longitudinal welded seam and provides consistent tube integrity, making it suitable for applications where reliability and dimensional consistency are important.

Mechanical Properties

Ti-6Al-4V is widely selected where high strength and low weight are required.

Typical minimum mechanical requirements for Grade 5 titanium tube according to the applicable ASTM B861 requirements include:

Mechanical Property ASTM B861 Grade 5 Requirement
Tensile Strength (Rm) ≥ 895 MPa
Yield Strength (Rp0.2) ≥ 825 MPa
Elongation (A) ≥ 10%
Material Ti-6Al-4V
Chinese Grade TC4
ASTM Grade Grade 5
UNS R56400
Condition Annealed / Aged, as specified
Seamless Titanium Tube Manufacturing Process

The typical manufacturing process includes:
