Corrosion Resistance

The most notable property of titanium fasteners is their superior corrosion resistance to saltwater/seawater. The unique ability of titanium fasteners to rapidly regenerate their protective passivation layer in the presence of oxygen gives them unparalleled resistance to saltwater. Resistant to seawater temperatures up to 500°F (260°C)

Chlorides, Chlorine, and Other Media

Similar to saltwater, the strong protective oxide film that titanium regenerates makes it extremely resistant to oxidizing environments and chloride solutions, including hypochlorites, chlorates, perchlorates, sodium chlorite, and chlorine dioxide. This protection applies as long as moisture is present – ​​which can be as low as 50ppm.

Lightweight Strength

Not only are titanium fasteners extremely strong, they are also very lightweight. Titanium Grade 5 screws are 4 times stronger than 316 stainless steel, but are nearly half the weight. Titanium fasteners are ideal for applications that require light weight and exceptional strength, such as medical, military, and more.

Wstitanium Manufacturing Titanium Fastener Technology

Manufacturing titanium screws is a complex and delicate process, covering a variety of forming technologies from cold heading, hot heading, CNC turning, CNC tapping to heat treatment, surface treatment and strict quality inspection and control.

CNC Turning

For small diameter, high precision titanium screws, Wstitanium usually chooses CNC Swiss machine tools. For large diameter, mass-produced titanium screws, HAAS milling machine tools (ST20) are selected. Due to the poor machinability of titanium alloys, the commonly used tool materials for turning titanium alloys are cemented carbide, ceramics, and cubic boron nitride (CBN). In CNC turning, strict quality control is required. Regularly measure the dimensions of the workpiece and check the quality of the machined surface, such as whether there are defects such as cracks, scratches, and chatter marks. If quality problems are found, analyze the causes in a timely manner and take appropriate measures to adjust, such as adjusting cutting parameters, replacing tools, or re-calibrating tools.

CNC Turning

Cold Heading

The titanium alloy forged bars used for cold heading usually need to be surface treated. Common treatment methods include pickling, phosphating and saponification. The purpose is to remove the oxide scale, oil stains and other impurities on the surface of the wire to make the surface clean. The quality and precision of the cold heading die play a decisive role in the forming quality of titanium screws. The cold heading machine applies pressure to the blank through the die, causing the blank to undergo plastic deformation in the die cavity, gradually forming the shape of the head and rod of the screw.

Cold Heading Screws

Hot Upsetting

Hot upsetting requires heating the titanium alloy blank to a certain temperature to reduce its deformation resistance and improve plasticity. Commonly used heating equipment includes resistance furnaces, induction furnaces, etc. For different titanium alloys, the heating temperature range is also different. Taking Ti-6Al-4V alloy as an example, the heating temperature during hot upsetting is usually between 900℃ and 1000℃. The heated blank needs to be quickly transferred to the mold of the hot upsetting machine and accurately positioned. The hot upsetting machine applies pressure to the blank, causing it to undergo plastic deformation in the mold cavity to complete the forming of the screw.

Hot Upsetting Screws

Heat Treatment

Heat treatment can significantly improve the mechanical properties of titanium screws. The reasonable application of annealing, solution treatment and aging treatment can make titanium fasteners have good strength, hardness, plasticity and toughness. Eliminate the residual stress generated by cold upsetting, hot upsetting, CNC turning, etc. of titanium screws, improve the plasticity and toughness of the material, and make the structure of the material more uniform. Taking Ti-6Al-4V alloy as an example, the temperature of full annealing is generally between 700℃-800℃, usually for 1-3 hours. The solution treatment temperature is generally between 920℃-950℃, usually for 1-2 hours. The aging temperature is generally between 500℃-600℃, and the holding time is 2-8 hours.

Heat Treatment Screws

Custom Surface Finishing Options

In order to further improve the performance of titanium fasteners, such as enhancing corrosion resistance, improving wear resistance, improving appearance and meeting special functional requirements, surface treatment has become an indispensable and important link. Wstitanium understands that different applications require different surface finishes for titanium fasteners. Therefore, we offer a range of customizable surface treatment options to meet your specific needs.

Anodizing

The oxide film formed on the surface of anodized titanium fasteners is firmly bonded to the substrate and has good corrosion resistance and wear resistance. By adjusting the parameters, the thickness and color of the oxide film can be controlled to meet different appearance and performance requirements. The oxide film has good insulation properties and is suitable for some application scenarios that require insulation performance.

Electroplating Titanium Fastener

Electroplating

Electroplating can form a uniform and dense metal coating on the surface of titanium fasteners, significantly improving its corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Different plating metals are selected according to different needs to achieve different functions, such as zinc plating can improve corrosion resistance. Nickel plating can improve wear resistance and conductivity. Chromium plating can improve hardness and aesthetics.

Nitriding Titanium Fastener

Nitriding

Titanium fasteners coated with titanium nitride coating on the surface. Its Vickers hardness can usually reach more than 2000HV. This enables the fasteners to effectively resist friction, wear, reduce thread damage, etc., and can also resist erosion by acids, alkalis, salts, and humid air. Titanium nitride has a high melting point (2930℃) and good thermal stability. The titanium nitride coating is golden yellow, and the metallic luster plays a decorative role.

Titanium Fastener Applications

Titanium fasteners play an indispensable role in many fields such as aerospace, automobile, medical, and marine engineering due to their unique performance advantages.
