Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo

The titanium alloy Ti-6AL-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo (also known as Ti-6-2-4-2) is generally comprised of 88% – 90% of titanium (Ti), 5.5 – 6.5% aluminum (Al), 1.8 – 2.2% tin (Sn), 3.6 – 4.4.% zirconium (Zr), and 1.8 – 2.2% molybdenum (Mo). Trace amounts of other components that make of Ti 6-4 would be nitrogen (N), carbon (C), oxygen (O), iron (Fe) and hydrogen (H). The UNS code for Ti6-4 is UNS R54620.

Ti-6-2-4-2 forged parts are sought after for many applications because of their high tensile strength, overall toughness, and for having a high resistance to many corrosive elements, especially against saltwater.
