Is Titanium Really Bulletproof?

You may have heard the amazing accolades of titanium. It is lighter and significantly stronger than steel. It is durable, yet easily moldable. It can withstand high temperatures as well as chemical and salt corrosion and rust. These characteristics make titanium a popular choice in manufacturing. With its superior characteristics, is it bulletproof? The answer can be both yes and no. Shooting enthusiasts, mechanics and curiosity-driven “scientists” have taken the opportunity to test and address this same question. The results were largely in favor of titanium. Most of the guns used for hunting as well as handguns for self-defense and personal use could not penetrate the sheet of titanium. However, repeated shooting of the titanium with higher-powered firearms eventually worn down and weakened the titanium so that it was eventually penetrable. Titanium, however doesn’t stand a chance against bullets fired from high-powered military grade firearms such as those used to penetrate tanks. Titanium can take single hits from high-caliber bullets, but it shatters and becomes penetrable with multiple hits from military-grade, armor piercing bullets. In the end, titanium is bulletproof for the most part against bullets fired from guns that one would likely find on the shooting range, on the street or on the hunt in the mountains. Most guns legally bought and owned by individuals will likely not penetrate titanium. Because of this bulletproof and bullet resistance properties, along with its light weight and heat resistance, titanium is a popular material used by the military, aerospace, automobile and marine sectors. It is important to note that not all grades of titanium are equal. Pure titanium isn’t bulletproof, but certain titanium alloys are. Each grade of titanium has its own benefits and main uses, making it important to do some research or ask an expert. Different jobs and project outcomes will require different grades of titanium. At Titan Engineering Singapore, we have a wide range of titanium grades. We supply a diverse array of titanium products including screws, bolts, piping, joints, fittings and sheets. We also have the equipment available to custom make titanium parts for your unique project needs. Whether you’re looking for bulletproof titanium car panels, safe lock boxes or hard to penetrate piping or tubing for your business, contact us today and our team of titanium experts will be happy to help you find the right grade of titanium for your specific project.

Titanium metal saves sportsmen heads!

When an incredibly strong and light weight part is required then titanium metal is a product that will fit the bill. Titanium Alloy is as strong as steel metal, it has a low density and it has the additional benefit of not being a metal that suffers from corrosion. It is becoming the metal that a variety of industries are turning to as they carry out research and develop new items. It is used in many hospitals around the world, where it is used as parts for replacement knee joints.

It has also been used to help the heads of sportsmen as it is used to create the grill that cricketers have on their helmets. Clearly the players’ and manufacturers are confident that titanium grill on helmets will stand up to being hit by a ball bowled at around 90-100 miles an hour. Purchasers in the aerospace industry are happy as well to buy titanium for their products.  Check @ www.titanium.com.sg

Lightweight Champion Titanium faces Heavy weight jobs

The twenty first century metal Titanium (Ti) can be found everywhere, from tennis rackets to jet engine parts. Titanium alloys are used in air crafts, armor plates, naval ships, spacecraft, satellites and missiles because of their high tensile strength, light weight, extraordinary corrosion resistance, and ability to withstand extreme temperatures. Welded titanium pipe is used in the chemical industry for its corrosion resistance, and its use is growing in petroleum drilling because of its strength, light weight and corrosion resistance. Titanium alloyed with vanadium is used in the outer skin of aircraft, fire walls, landing gear and hydraulic tubing.

Other uses:

• Due to excellent resistance to sea water,  titanium is used to make propeller shafts and rigging and CP grade titanium tubes are used in the heat ex-changers of desalination plants and in heater-chillers for salt water aquariums.
• Because it is considered to be physiologically inert, titanium is used in joint replacement implants such as hip ball and sockets and to make medical equipment and in pipe/tank lining in food processing. Titanium is also used for surgical instruments.
• Titanium alloys make highly durable and long lasting eye glass frames. Both traditional alloys and shape memory alloys find use in this application.
• Many backpackers use titanium equipment, including cookware, eating utensils, lanterns and tent stakes because titanium products can be significantly lighter without compromising strength.
• Titanium is popular in consumer products such as tennis rackets, golf clubs, bicycles, laboratory equipment and laptop computers.

About 95% of mined and synthetic titanium mineral concentrates was used to make titanium dioxide (TiO2) a pigment used to impart whiteness to paper and inks. Anything you see white is due to use of titanium dioxide. One of the largest producer of titanium dioxide, Huntsman Tioxide (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd is also our regular customer. Titanium is also added in steel alloys to reduce grain size and as a deoxidizer and in stainless steel to reduce carbon content. Titanium is often alloyed with aluminum (to refine grain size), vanadium, copper (to harden), iron, manganese, molybdenum, and other metals.

The quality and composition of all of the materials that go into making these metal blends must be verified. For example, if the titanium used in the manufacture of propeller shafts or other parts designed for underwater use is not alloyed with the right metal for the application, the parts won’t have the needed corrosion resistance. Similarly, titanium must be alloyed with precise amounts of platinum, palladium, or ruthenium to make pipes that can withstand harsh chemical processing environments.

Titan Singapore keeps extensive stock various grades of titanium materials. Drops us email or visit us to know more.
