The mechanical properties have to be adjusted by the heat treatment and manufacturing
process parameters and are only "provisional values". The effectively demands of mechanical
properties at the finished components have to be clarified first.
Special Properties: extremely light with a density from 4,82, high-strength and ductile
compared to TiAl6V4.
Application: light and high strength fasteners and bolts with good processing and
formability
++ measured with a A4 test sample according to AMS
+++ a higher strength is possible, but with a lost in ductility
Remark:
The specified mechanical values refer to semifinished rolled or pulled bars parallel to the axis.
In the case of single values in the above tables these are represent minimum values.
Furthermore the values are considered to semifinished products with a diameter up to 30 mm.
