Titanium Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5), Annealed AMS 4928 AMS 4911

Subcategory: Alpha/Beta Titanium Alloy; Metal; Nonferrous Metal; Titanium Alloy

Close Analogs: 4 other heat treatments of this alloy are listed in MatWeb.

Key Words: Ti-6-4; UNS R56400; ASTM Grade 5 titanium; UNS R56401 (ELI); Ti6Al4V, biomaterials,
biomedical implants, biocompatibility

Component Wt. %

Al 6
Fe Max 0.25
O Max 0.2
Ti 90
V 4

Material Notes: Information provided by Allvac and the references. Annealing Temperature 700-785ºC.
Alpha-Beta Alloy.

Applications: Blades, discs, rings, airframes, fasteners, components. Vessels, cases, hubs, forgings.
Biomedical implants.

Biocompatibility: Excellent, especially when direct contact with tissue or bone is required. Ti-6Al-4V's poor
shear strength makes it undesirable for bone screws or plates. It also has poor surface wear properties and
tends to seize when in sliding contact with itself and other metals. Surface treatments such as nitriding and
oxidizing can improve the surface wear properties.
