Grade 3 is a medium-strength commercially pure titanium grade used when greater load-bearing capability is required without moving to an alloyed titanium grade. It offers excellent resistance in many oxidizing, neutral and mildly reducing environments, including seawater, chlorides, chemical processing media and marine atmospheres.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PRODUCT FORMS<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>Sheet, Strip, Plate&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>SPECIFICATIONS<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>ASTM B265, ASME SB-265, AMS 4900&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>TYPICAL APPLICATIONS<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>Chemical processing equipment, heat exchangers, condenser tubing and plates, marine components, desalination equipment, reactor vessels, pressure vessels, piping systems, tanks, aerospace and airframe components, cryogenic vessels, medical components and lightweight fabricated parts requiring higher strength than Grade 2.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>PROCESSING<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>Titanium Grade 3 is typically supplied in the annealed condition for sheet, strip and plate. It is not hardenable by heat treatment, but it can be strengthened by cold work. Annealing may be used after forming or cold working to restore ductility, improve dimensional stability and reduce residual stresses.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>FORMING<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>Grade 3 has good formability, but it is stronger and less formable than Titanium Grades 1 and 2. Higher forming forces may be required, and intermediate annealing may be useful for more severe cold forming operations. It can be bent, roll formed, stamped and drawn when proper tooling and forming practices are used.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>WELDING<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>Titanium Grade 3 is readily weldable by standard titanium welding processes when proper inert gas shielding is used. Weld areas must be protected from oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen contamination at elevated temperatures to maintain ductility, corrosion resistance and clean weld quality.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>CORROSION<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>Grade 3 titanium forms a stable, adherent titanium oxide film that provides excellent resistance to seawater, chlorides, oxidizing acids, alkaline environments and many industrial chemical services. Its combination of corrosion resistance, low density and higher strength makes it useful for marine, chemical processing, aerospace and heat transfer applications.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Type<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>Yield Strength 0.2% offset (KSI)<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>Tensile Strength (KSI)<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>% Elongation (2\u201d Gauge Length)<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Grade 3 Ann<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td>55 min.&nbsp;<\/td><td>65 min.&nbsp;<\/td><td>18 min.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Element<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>Titanium Grade 3<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Nitrogen<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td>0.05 max.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Carbon<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td>0.08 max.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Hydrogen<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td>0.015 max.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Iron<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td>0.30 max.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Oxygen<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td>0.35 max.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Titanium<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td>Balance&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PHYSICAL PROPERTIES<\/strong>\u00a0<br \/>Density @ RT: 0.163 lb.\/in^3; Modulus of Elasticity in Tension: approximately 15.2 psi x 10^6; Specific Heat: approximately 0.125 BTU\/\u00b0F\/lb.; Thermal Conductivity: approximately 9.5 to 12 BTU\/hr-ft-\u00b0F at room temperature; Mean Coefficient of Thermal Expansion: approximately 4.8 x 10^-6 in.\/in.\/\u00b0F from 68 to 212\u00b0F; Electrical Resistivity: approximately 54 micro ohm-cm at room temperature; Melting Point Range: approximately 3020 to 3034\u00b0F.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DESCRIPTION&nbsp;Titanium Grade 3, UNS R50550, is a commercially pure, unalloyed titanium grade that provides higher strength than Titanium Grades 1 and 2 while maintaining good ductility, weldability and corrosion resistance.
