Titanium Ti Grade 19-ST vs Ti Grade 19 STA-H
Titanium · Ti Grade 19 temper comparison
Ti Grade 19-ST and Ti Grade 19 STA-H are two conditions of the same titanium grade, Ti Grade 19: ST (solution annealed) versus STA-H (STA). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. Ti Grade 19 STA-H is the stronger of the two: yield strength 1,240 MPa (180 ksi) against 860 MPa (125 ksi) for Ti Grade 19-ST, about 44% more; tensile strength follows at 1,310 MPa (190 ksi) vs 930 MPa (135 ksi). In exchange, Ti Grade 19-ST is the more ductile: elongation 18% versus 6% for Ti Grade 19 STA-H, and Ti Grade 19 STA-H is harder (43 HRC vs 30 HRC). Ti Grade 19 STA-H is stiffer (108 GPa vs 96 GPa) and Ti Grade 19 STA-H runs hotter in service (300°C vs 260°C continuous). On the shop floor, Ti Grade 19-ST welds better (good vs fair).
Ti Grade 19-STChoose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded, or when it will be welded.
Ti Grade 19 STA-HChoose it when strength drives the design, or when the part sees heat.
Ti Grade 19-ST vs Ti Grade 19 STA-H: 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.

Ti Grade 19-ST vs Ti Grade 19 STA-H — frequently asked
Is Ti Grade 19 STA-H stronger than Ti Grade 19-ST?
Yes. Ti Grade 19 STA-H has a typical yield strength of 1,240 MPa (180 ksi) against 860 MPa (125 ksi) for Ti Grade 19-ST — about 44% more. Tensile strength is 1,310 MPa (190 ksi) vs 930 MPa (135 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, ST or STA-H?
ST is the default Ti Grade 19 condition in the FabDigit quote flow. The other condition is available on request or by drawing note — specify it in the material field or the part notes and the quote is priced for it.
Which is easier to machine, Ti Grade 19-ST or Ti Grade 19 STA-H?
Ti Grade 19-ST. Its machinability rates poor (20/100) against not recommended (12/100) for Ti Grade 19 STA-H; for welding the order is Ti Grade 19-ST first (good, 65/100) then Ti Grade 19 STA-H (fair, 35/100).
