Titanium wire and titanium alloy wire are widely used in aerospace, medical, chemical and electronic equipment fields because of their excellent corrosion resistance, strength and light weight. Titanium and titanium alloy wires are commonly used in the manufacture of welding materials, medical implants, electrodes, and springs and fasteners in high temperature environments. Commonly used titanium wire grades include Gr1, Gr2 (pure titanium),Gr5 and Gr23 (titanium alloy).
