Form

This specification covers a titanium alloy in the form of extruded bars, tubes, and shapes, and of flash welded rings and stock for flash welded rings.

Application

These products have been used typically for parts requiring high strength up to 750 °F (399 °C), particularly those parts machined and/or flash-butt welded in the annealed condition with the option of subsequent solution and precipitation heat treatment, but usage is not limited to such applications.

Certain processing procedures and service conditions may cause these products to become subject to stress-corrosion cracking; ARP982 recommends practices to minimize such conditions.
