Gr2 Titanium Pipe
GR2 pure titanium pipes are characterized by an excellent strength-to-weight ratio and can remain unchanged in high-temperature environments belonging to the lower hardness and higher toughness grades of pure titanium are corrosion-resistant in oxidizing and mildly reducing environments have good formability.
Description
Gr2 titanium alloy tube features
1. good corrosion resistance: Gr2 titanium pipe has excellent corrosion resistance in a variety of environments such as acid, alkali, brine.
2. high strength: although Gr2 titanium tube is not as strong as other titanium alloys, it still has good strength.
3. good plasticity: Gr2 thin titanium pipe can deform plastically on rapid cooling at room temperature.
4. good toughness: compared with many other materials, Gr2 titanium alloy has very good toughness.

Applications of Gr2 Titanium Pipe
Waste water and exhaust gas treatment in the chemical industry requires very high corrosion resistance of the material, and Gr2 titanium alloy has excellent performance in this regard, so this titanium alloy has been widely used in chemical containers, fertilizer industry, oil refining industry and so on. Due to its good corrosion resistance, light weight and high temperature resistance, Gr2 titanium alloy is widely used in the difficult parts of submarine and land petroleum exploitation industrial fields, such as deep-sea drilling platforms, pipelines, pumps, packings and heat exchangers.
