Gr3 titanium rod

Gr3 Titanium Rod – High-Strength Commercially Pure Titanium | Factory Direct

LINHUI TITANIUM manufactures precision-engineered Gr3 titanium rod conforming to ASTM B348 and ASTM F67 standards. Our high-quality titanium alloy round rod delivers minimum tensile strength of 550 MPa and yield strength of 380 MPa—30-40% stronger than Grade 2. Each rod features precision interface machining, high-pressure explosion-proof construction, and excellent wear resistance. With strict oxygen content control (max 0.35%) and 99.5% purity, our titanium rod provides the optimal balance between strength and corrosion resistance for demanding industrial applications. Factory direct sales ensure competitive pricing with volume discounts available. Our 200+ ton inventory enables rapid delivery within 3-7 days for stock items.

Key Features & Benefits

Superior Mechanical Performance

The Gr3 titanium rod bridges the performance gap between softer Grade 2 and brittle Grade 4 materials. You get 380 MPa yield strength with 18% elongation retention.

Outstanding Corrosion Immunity

Your equipment remains immune to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking in chlorides, seawater, and industrial acids. This eliminates costly downtime.

Lightweight Yet Durable

At 4.51 g/cm³ density, you reduce structural weight by 40% compared to stainless steel without sacrificing load-bearing capacity.

Manufacturing Process

Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR)

We produce homogeneous ingots through triple-melt VAR technology. This eliminates segregation defects and ensures consistent mechanical properties throughout the rod.

Hot Forging & Rolling

Your rods undergo controlled hot working at 900-1000°C. This refines grain structure and achieves uniform microstructure distribution for predictable performance.

Precision Centerless Grinding

Diameter tolerance is maintained within ±0.05mm. You receive rods with precision interfaces ready for direct installation or minimal finish machining.

Heat Treatment & Stress Relief

Annealing at 650-750°C removes residual stress. This guarantees dimensional stability during your fabrication processes.

Quality Inspection

100% Ultrasonic Testing (UT)

Every titanium rod passes ASTM E213 ultrasonic inspection. We detect internal flaws down to 0.8mm diameter equivalent.

Chemical Analysis

Optical emission spectrometry verifies composition compliance. You receive material test certificates (MTC) per EN 10204 3.1/3.2 with full heat number traceability.

Mechanical Testing

Tensile, yield, and elongation tests are conducted per ASTM E8. Third-party inspection by SGS, BV, TÜV, DNV, or ABS is available upon request.

Applications Of Gr3 titanium rod

Chemical Processing Equipment

You can machine our titanium rod into flanges, fasteners, and reactor supports. It withstands acidic slurries and hot brine where stainless steel fails.

Aerospace Components

The rod serves as raw material for hydraulic tubing housings, brackets, and non-rotary structural parts requiring high fatigue resistance without weight penalty.

Marine & Offshore Engineering

Fabricate propeller shafts, valve stems, and subsurface equipment casings. The material resists stress corrosion cracking better than copper-nickel alloys in deep-sea environments.

Medical Device Manufacturing

FDA-compliant material enables production of surgical instruments and implantable device components requiring biocompatibility and strength.

FAQ

Q: What's the minimum order quantity?

A: We support trial orders starting from 100kg for stock specifications. Custom sizes require 500kg minimum.

Q: Can you provide material certificates?

A: Yes. Every order includes EN 10204 3.1 certificates with heat number traceability. Third-party inspection available.

Q: How does Grade 3 compare to Grade 2?

A: Grade 3 offers 30-40% higher strength (550 MPa vs 345 MPa tensile) while maintaining similar corrosion resistance and weldability.

Q: Do you offer custom diameters?

A: Absolutely. We manufacture rods from 6mm to 300mm diameter with length up to 6000mm. Custom tolerances available.

Q: What surface finishes are available?

A: Standard pickled, mirror polished (Ra 0.4μm), and sandblasted finishes. Specify requirements when ordering.

Q: Is welding Grade 3 difficult?

A: No. Use TIG/MIG with argon shielding like other CP grades. No special filler metal required for most joints.
