DOD HIGH STRENGTH TITANIUM ALLOY SHEET RESEARCH PROGRAM

Abstract

This report contains data for the 5-5-5 and 7-12 sheet alloys, including evaluations to be conducted and data obtained to date. The surface finish and flatness of the sheets were superior to the heat-treatable alloys and the sheets tested exceeded target mechanical properties with the exception of the bend radii of one 7-12 sheet. To establish machinability criteria the Box Wilson Statistical Method will be employed. Cleaning requrements for fusion welding are similar to the 5-2 1/2 alloy and preliminary resistance weld tests produced a higher Tension/Shear ratio for the 5-5-5 than the 7-12.
