THE TI-6A1-6V-2SN-0.5FE-0.25CU ALLOY AND OTHER ALPHA-BETA TYPE ALLOYS UTILIZED AT WATERTOWN ARSENAL

Abstract

During the past four or five years, Watertown Arsenal has been actively engaged in the development, evaluation and exploitation of medium and high strength alpha-beta type titanium alloys. A large portion of the development work has been carried out at New York University under the auspices of Watertown Arsenal. At the present time several experimental alloys have exhibited yield strengths in excess of 200,000 psi while maintaining good ductility and toughness. Figure 1 lists a number of the most promising alloys evaluated and their corresponding mechanical property values.
