Titanium alloys are globally recognized for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, making them significantly stronger than stainless steel while being nearly 40% lighter. Titanium forms a protective oxide layer that provides remarkable resistance to chlorides, seawater, acids, oxidizing environments, and high-temperature conditions. This makes them the preferred choice for aggressive or high-pressure environments.

✔ Titanium Grades Offered

  • Grade 2 (Commercially Pure) – Excellent corrosion resistance + high formability
  • Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) – Aerospace-grade high strength + temperature stability
  • Grade 9 (Ti-3Al-2.5V) – Ideal for coiled tubes, flexible yet strong
  • Grade 12 (Ti-0.3Mo-0.8Ni) – Superior corrosion resistance in hot chlorine, acidic & brine conditions

Each tube undergoes precision extrusion, cold drawing, annealing, solution processing and strict testing to ensure perfect dimensional accuracy, mechanical stability, and clean internal surfaces suitable for fluid transfer, heat exchange and pressure systems.
