RMI 6Al-4V

Abstract

Abstract RMI 6AI-4V is an alpha-beta type of titanium-base alloy that can be strengthened by age hardening. In the mill-annealed condition it has a guaranteed minimum room-temperature yield strength of 120,000 psi and this can be increased to as much as 160,000 psi by solution treating and aging. This alloy is tough and has attractive elevated-temperature properties. It is used widely for applications at temperatures up to 800 F. Typical applications are parts for jet engines, aircraft components and pressure vessels. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, tensile properties, and bend strength as well as fracture toughness and creep. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: Ti-88.
