Form

This specification covers a titanium alloy in the form of seamless tubing.

Application

This tubing has been used typically for parts, such as hydraulic lines, requiring strength and oxidation resistance up to 600 °F (316 °C), and weldability, but usage is not limited to such applications.

Type and Class

Tubing, covered by this specification, is classified by minimum yield strength as follows:

Type I - Tubing with 105 ksi (724 MPa) minimum yield strength

Type II - Tubing with 95 ksi (655 MPa) minimum yield strength

Type III - Tubing with 70 ksi (483 MPa) minimum yield strength

Tubing, covered by this specification, is classified by surface finish treatment as follows:

Class 1 - Conventional acid pickling surface finish treatment

Class 2 - Alternate surface finish treatment (requires qualification to AS5620)

If no class is specified, Class 1 shall be supplied.
