What is the hardness of titanium grade 2?

GR2 titanium (3.7035 / UNS R50400) is the king of industrial applications due to its varied usability and wide availability. It shares many equal qualities with grade 1, however but its stronger to some extent. Both classes are equally immune to corrosion.

TiGr2 shows good weldability and strength, stands out with a low specific weight at favorable mechanical properties such as ductility and formability.

Shows excellent cold formability and a high corrosion resistance to reducing and oxidizing media and brine. It is prominent in constant working operations, where temperatures reach up to 800℃F (425℃) as well as in intermittent working conditions where temperatures reach up to 1000℃F (540℃). It can be welded, cold- and hot- machined also cast.

The hardness of Titanium Grade 2 (UNS R50400) typically ranges between 150 - 210 Brinell (HB) or 70 - 95 Rockwell B (HRB), depending on its material condition and processing history.

Titanium's C.P. grades corrosion resistance comes from a strongly adherent, stable, protective oxide film, which forms in the presence of oxygen. This film makes the commercially pure titanium grades resistant to most oxidizing, neutral and inhibited reducing, as well as mildly reducing environments. Grade 2 offers excellent resistance to seawater and marine atmospheric corrosion. Corrosion resistance is similar between the four C.P. grades, but mechanical properties vary along with varying oxygen and iron contents. Grade 2 titanium is resistant to attack from moist chlorides and metallic chlorides, chlorite and hypochlorite solutions, nitric and chromic acids, organic acids as well as many gaseous industrial applications.

In chemical processes (can be use in oxidizing media, alkaline media, organic acids and compounds, aqueous salt solutions and hot gases);offshore industries (is fully resistant to corrosion in seawater at temperatures up to 300℃); in aircraft construction where a certain strength level and ease of formability is desired; in heat exchangers, hypochlorite systems, fire water systems, ballast water system, pumps and cryogenic vessels.
