1. Clean and Dry: Ensure that tubing is thoroughly cleaned and kept dry before storage. Any residual moisture, oil or other contaminants may cause corrosion or contamination.
2. Anti-oxidation: During storage, contact with air should be minimized to prevent oxidation. You can use plastic film or rustproof paper to wrap the tubing and store it in a dry, well-ventilated environment.
3. Avoid scratches and damages: During storage, direct contact with other metals or hard objects should be avoided to prevent scratches or damages. Soft pads or packing materials can be used to isolate the tubes.
4. Suitable temperature: The temperature of the storage environment should be kept within the normal temperature range to avoid extreme temperature changes. Excessively high temperatures may result in decreased material properties, while excessively low temperatures may result in increased brittleness.

1. What is Thin Wall Gr23 Titanium Tubing?

Thin Wall Gr23 Titanium Tubing is manufactured from Grade 23 Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V ELI, UNS R56401), an extra-low interstitial titanium alloy offering excellent strength, corrosion resistance, fatigue performance, and biocompatibility. Its thin-wall design provides significant weight reduction while maintaining high mechanical performance, making it ideal for medical, aerospace, and precision engineering applications.

 

2. What is the difference between Grade 23 and Grade 5 Titanium?

Grade 23 is the ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) version of Grade 5 Titanium. Compared with Grade 5, Grade 23 offers improved ductility, fracture toughness, and fatigue resistance, making it the preferred material for medical implants and high-reliability aerospace components.

 

3. What wall thickness is considered "thin wall" titanium tubing?

Thin wall titanium tubing generally refers to tubes with a wall thickness below 1.5 mm, although the exact definition depends on the tube diameter and application. We can manufacture precision thin-wall tubing with tight dimensional tolerances.

 

4. What sizes are available?

Our standard production range includes:

Outside Diameter (OD): 3 mm – 60 mm

Wall Thickness (WT): 0.2 mm – 3.0 mm

Length: Up to 6,000 mm

Custom sizes are available according to customer drawings or technical specifications.

 

5. What standards do your Gr23 titanium tubes comply with?

Our Grade 23 titanium tubing can be manufactured according to:

ASTM B338

ASTM B861

ASTM F136

ASME SB338

ASME SB861

Custom production to customer specifications is also available.

 

6. What surface finishes are available?

We offer multiple surface finishes, including:

Pickled

Bright Annealed (BA)

Polished

Precision Ground (Optional)

Surface finishes can be customized to meet medical, aerospace, or industrial requirements.

 

7. What inspection and testing do you perform?

Each batch of Gr23 titanium tubing can undergo comprehensive quality inspections, including:

Positive Material Identification (PMI)

Chemical Composition Analysis

Mechanical Property Testing

Ultrasonic Testing (UT)

Eddy Current Testing (ECT)

Dimensional Inspection

Surface Quality Inspection

Third-party inspections by SGS, BV, TUV, or customer-designated agencies are available upon request.

 

8. Can you provide material certificates?

Yes. Every shipment can be supplied with EN 10204 3.1 Mill Test Certificate (MTC). Additional inspection reports and third-party certifications are also available upon request.

 

9. What are the typical applications of Thin Wall Gr23 Titanium Tubing?

Thin Wall Gr23 Titanium Tubing is widely used in:
