Rolled Alloys provides the following information to offer a basic understanding of the various titanium grades and their relative properties.
Titanium comes in two main categories: commercially pure grades and titanium alloy grades. Titanium alloy categories include alpha-titanium, beta-titanium, and alpha-beta titanium, which correspond to different structural phases of the material. The commercially pure grades are classified as Grades 1 through 4. Each grade exhibits distinct variations in allowable element limits and strength levels. More detailed information about the chemical compositions and mechanical properties of these grades is provided below.
| Grade | C | N | O | H | Fe | Ti |
| 1 | 0.08 | 0.03 | 0.18 | 0.015 | 0.2 | Bal |
| 2 | 0.08 | 0.03 | 0.25 | 0.015 | 0.3 | Bal |
| 3 | 0.08 | 0.05 | 0.35 | 0.015 | 0.3 | Bal |
| 4 | 0.08 | 0.05 | 0.40 | 0.015 | 0.5 | Bal |

| Grade | Tensile (ksi) | Yield (ksi) | Elongation (%) |

| 2 | 50 | 40 | 20 |

Three titanium alloys closely resemble commercially pure titanium being Grades 7, 11, and 12. Grade 7 is comparable to Grade 2 in terms of mechanical properties but boasts superior corrosion resistance due to the addition of up to 0.25% Pd, making it exceptionally resilient against reducing acids. Similarly, Grade 11 shares similarities with Grade 1 but includes an addition of up to 0.25% Pd, enhancing its resistance to crevice corrosion and reducing acids. Grade 12, on the other hand, features slightly higher minimum mechanical property requirements than Grade 3 but lower than Grade 4. What sets Grade 12 apart from the commercially pure grades is its composition, containing 0.60-0.90% nickel content and 0.20-0.40% molybdenum. The tables below present the chemical compositions and mechanical properties of these alloys.
Grade | C | N | O | H | Fe | Pd | Ni | Mo | Ti |
7 | 0.08 | 0.03 | 0.25 | 0.015 | 0.30 | 0.12-0.25 | – | – | Bal |

*All values are minimums per ASTM B348
The next alloy, often called “6-4” or Grade 5, is the most widely used titanium alloy globally, constituting over half of the world’s titanium production. Another widely utilized variation is 6-4 ELI (Extra Low Interstitial), recognized as Grade 23, predominantly employed in the medical implant industry. All 6-4 alloys belong to the alpha-beta alloy category and can be heat-treated to achieve a wide range of properties, depending on the heat treatment applied. However, it’s worth noting that 6-4 ELI presents challenges in achieving minimum mechanical heat-treat properties due to its strict maximum oxygen requirement. Please consult the table below for detailed information on chemistry and typical mechanical properties.
Grade | Al | V | C | N | O | H | Fe | Ti |
5 | 5.50-6.75 | 3.50-4.50 | 0.08 | 0.05 | 0.20 | 0.015 | 0.40 | Bal |
