TM0165 Titanium Tube (Ti Tube)

Titanium Tube Description

Titanium Tube (Ti Tube) is one of the common titanium products and has a superior strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. We generally divide titanium tubes into two types, one is called the seamless titanium tube, and the other is called the welded titanium tube.

Titanium tubes are light in weight, high in strength, and superior in mechanical properties. They are widely used in heat exchange equipment, such as tube and tube heat exchangers, coil heat exchangers, serpentine tube heat exchangers, condensers, evaporators, and conveying pipelines, etc.

Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) is a trust-worthy supplier of high-quality Titanium Tube (Ti Tube) that has over two decades in the manufacture and sale of titanium products.

FAQs

Q1: What is Titanium Tube used for?

A1: Titanium tubes are widely used in various industries due to their strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance. Common applications include:

Aerospace and aviation – for structural components and fluid systems

Chemical processing in reactors, heat exchangers, and pipelines for corrosive materials

Medical – in implants, surgical instruments, and prosthetics

Marine – for seawater handling systems

Energy production – in heat exchangers, power plants, and nuclear reactors

Q2: What are the key properties of Titanium Tube?

A2: Corrosion resistance – Highly resistant to corrosion in most environments, including seawater and acids

High strength-to-weight ratio – titanium is both strong and lightweight

High temperature resistance – suitable for high-temperature environments

Biocompatibility – safe for medical and implant applications

Non-magnetic – important for sensitive applications, such as electronics and MRI machines

Durability – long-lasting performance even in extreme conditions

Q3: Is Titanium Tube suitable for high-temperature applications?

A3: Yes, titanium tubes can withstand high temperatures and are commonly used in heat exchangers, furnaces, and reactors where other materials may fail due to heat. The material's high melting point (1668°C) ensures its stability even in extreme environments.
