Description
GR2 Seamless Titanium Tube – ASTM B338 Certified Corrosion-Resistant Tubing for Industrial & Marine Applications
The GR2 seamless titanium tube is engineered for demanding industrial environments where exceptional corrosion resistance and strength-to-weight performance are critical. Manufactured in compliance with the ASTM B338 standard, this tube is made from commercially pure titanium Grade 2 (UNS R50400) — a material known for its reliability in chemical processing, seawater systems, and power generation applications.
🔹 What is GR2 Seamless Titanium Tube?
GR2 is one of the most widely used titanium grades due to its optimal balance of mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and fabricability. It contains over 98.8% pure titanium, with controlled levels of oxygen, iron, and other trace elements. The seamless construction eliminates potential weak points and ensures consistent flow performance under pressure, temperature, and chemical exposure.
📐 Standard Sizes & Tolerances
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Outer Diameter (OD) | 6 mm – 114 mm |
| Wall Thickness | 0.5 mm – 5.0 mm |
| Length | ≤ 6,000 mm (custom lengths available) |
| Finish | Pickled / Bright / Polished |
| Condition | Annealed |
| Tolerances | As per ASTM B338 or customer drawing |
We offer custom processing such as cut-to-length, beveling, and precision polishing for specific end-use requirements.
🧪 Chemical Composition (Typical, per ASTM B338)
| Element | Max. % |
|---|---|
| Oxygen (O) | 0.25 |
| Iron (Fe) | 0.30 |
| Carbon (C) | 0.08 |
| Nitrogen (N) | 0.03 |
| Hydrogen (H) | 0.015 |
| Titanium (Ti) | Balance (~98.9%) |
This composition ensures excellent corrosion protection and high-temperature stability in both oxidizing and chloride-rich environments.
📊 Mechanical Properties (Annealed State)
| Property | Minimum Requirement |
|---|---|
| Tensile Strength | 344 MPa (50 ksi) |
| Yield Strength (0.2%) | 275 MPa (40 ksi) |
| Elongation | ≥ 20% |
| Elastic Modulus | 105 GPa |
| Density | 4.51 g/cm³ |
These properties make the GR2 seamless titanium tube easy to bend, weld, and machine while maintaining structural integrity.
🌊 Corrosion Resistance & Use Environments
The GR2 seamless titanium tube resists:
-
Seawater and brine
-
Oxidizing acids (nitric, chromic)
-
Alkaline solutions and bleach
-
Wet chlorine and chlorides
-
Mild reducing environments
Thanks to its naturally forming TiO₂ oxide layer, it remains passivated even under fluctuating conditions and minor scratches.
