Titanium CP-Ti Powder (GB/T 30265) vs Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924)

Titanium · grade comparison

Titanium CP-Ti Powder (GB/T 30265) 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 350 MPa (50.8 ksi) for CP-Ti Powder (GB/T 30265), about 197% more; tensile strength follows at 1,150 MPa (167 ksi) vs 450 MPa (65.3 ksi). Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) is harder — 340 HB against 160 HB for CP-Ti Powder (GB/T 30265) — which matters for wear surfaces and threads. Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) is stiffer (113 GPa vs 105 GPa) and Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924) runs hotter in service (350°C vs 300°C continuous). On the shop floor, CP-Ti Powder (GB/T 30265) machines more easily (fair vs poor), CP-Ti Powder (GB/T 30265) welds better (very good vs good), and CP-Ti Powder (GB/T 30265) forms better (good vs poor).

CP-Ti Powder (GB/T 30265)Choose it when the part is machined in volume, or when it will be welded.

Ti-6Al-4V (AM, F2924)Choose it when strength drives the design, or when surface hardness matters.
