Titanium CP-Ti Powder for MIM vs Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924)
Titanium · grade comparison
Titanium CP-Ti Powder for MIM and Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) are both titanium grades. Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) is the stronger of the two: yield strength 1,040 MPa (151 ksi) against 380 MPa (55.1 ksi) for CP-Ti Powder for MIM, about 174% more; tensile strength follows at 1,150 MPa (167 ksi) vs 480 MPa (69.6 ksi). In exchange, CP-Ti Powder for MIM is the more ductile: elongation 15% versus 11% for Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924), and Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) is harder (340 HB vs 160 HB). Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) is stiffer (113 GPa vs 100 GPa) and Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) runs hotter in service (350°C vs 300°C continuous). On the shop floor, Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) welds better (65 vs 55 out of 100).
CP-Ti Powder for MIMChoose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924)Choose it when strength drives the design, or when the part sees heat.
CP-Ti Powder for MIM vs Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924): propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all titanium grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.

CP-Ti Powder for MIM vs Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) — frequently asked
Is Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) stronger than CP-Ti Powder for MIM?
Yes. Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) has a typical yield strength of 1,040 MPa (151 ksi) against 380 MPa (55.1 ksi) for CP-Ti Powder for MIM — about 174% more. Tensile strength is 1,150 MPa (167 ksi) vs 480 MPa (69.6 ksi).
Which is cheaper, CP-Ti Powder for MIM or Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924)?
Both sit in the same relative cost tier ($$$$, high); the part price will be decided by machining time, tolerance and quantity rather than by the material.
Which is easier to machine, CP-Ti Powder for MIM or Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924)?
CP-Ti Powder for MIM, by a small margin. Both rate poor for machinability — 25/100 against 18/100 for Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924); for welding the order is Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) first (good, 65/100) then CP-Ti Powder for MIM (good, 55/100).
