Product Name: Titanium Gr 2 flanges Standard: ASME B16.5 Material: Gr2 Unit Price: $25usd/pc-$85usd/pc Sealing Surface: RF, FF, TG, RJ etc. Size: NPS 1/2 - NPS 24(DN 10 - 2000) Pressure: 150#-2500# Grade 2 titanium is the most commonly requested in the pipeline valve and fittings industry, with high strength and corrosion resistance. Titanium is generally used in applications that require high temperature and high pressure service but are lighter in weight. Some good examples are components in the aerospace industry (airframe frames) and state-of-the-art equipment in the military. Given its excellent corrosion resistance in marine and chloride applications, titanium flanges are also popular as offshore drilling components and heat exchanger components. When you need a metal with good overall formability and workability, please choose titanium. It has the capability of hot or cold forming while maintaining its excellent mechanical properties. For transportation to your work site, it is good to know that titanium is much lighter than regular steel (about 40-45% lighter). Although not as light as aluminum, our titanium flanges and fittings are easier to handle during welding and installation.

Product name:Gr12 Titanium Hemispherical Head Standard: ASME VIII-I, DIN28013 Material: GR1, GR2, GR7, GR12 Size: Customized Gr12 Titanium Hemispherical Head Hemispherical head refers to the head composed of half spherical shell and straight edge (cylindrical short joint). The radius of curvature of the spherical shell is equal everywhere and the force is uniform. Compared with other heads, hemispherical heads require the smallest wall thickness under the same internal pressure. At the connection between the spherical shell and the cylinder with the same thickness, the edge stress caused by the change of curvature radius is only 3.1% of the overall membrane stress of the cylinder, which can be ignored. Therefore, the mechanical properties of hemispherical head are the best and the materials used are the most economical. Product name:Gr12 Titanium Hemispherical Head Standard: ASME VIII-I, DIN28013 Material: GR12 Size: Customized MOQ:1PC Spherical head, also known as spherical crown head, is a head formed by the spherical crown part of the spherical shell, including hemispherical head and non folded spherical head. The spherical head has excellent forging, smooth surface, acid and alkali resistance, high temperature resistance, beautiful appearance and strong texture performance. The applicable medium of spherical head is gas, liquid and steam. Spherical heads are used in petroleum, electronics, chemical industry, medicine, textile, food, machinery, construction, nuclear power, aerospace, military and other industries. Precautions for use of spherical head: 1. Carbon steel spherical head will crack in nitrate, ammonia, alkaline sodium and other environments. Explain to eliminate residual stress when ordering head. 2. Stress corrosion cracking of austenitic stainless steel will occur in the specific environment with chloride ions. Select appropriate materials when designing spherical head. 3. For carbon steel vessels requiring hot galvanizing or aluminizing, heat treatment shall be carried out first to remove residual stress Titanium grade 12 pipe (Ti-0.3Mo-0.8Ni) Chemical compositions(weight%,<=) Mo Ni Fe C N 0.2-0.4 0.6-0.9 0.30 0.08 0.03 H O Ti Others Total 0.015 0.25 Remainder 0.10 0.40 Physical properties(>=) Σb Tensile Strength (Mpa) σr0.2 Yield Strength (Mpa) δL0+50mm Elongation (%) ψ Reduction of area (%) 440 345 18
