Titanium Ti Grade 27 Annealed vs Ti Grade 27-HR
Titanium · Ti Grade 27 temper comparison
Ti Grade 27 Annealed and Ti Grade 27-HR are two conditions of the same titanium grade, Ti Grade 27: Annealed versus HR (hot rolled). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. Ti Grade 27-HR is the stronger of the two: yield strength 265 MPa (38.4 ksi) against 230 MPa (33.4 ksi) for Ti Grade 27 Annealed, about 15% more; tensile strength follows at 360 MPa (52.2 ksi) vs 330 MPa (47.9 ksi). In exchange, Ti Grade 27 Annealed is the more ductile: elongation 32% versus 28% for Ti Grade 27-HR, and Ti Grade 27-HR is harder (130 HB vs 120 HB).
Ti Grade 27 AnnealedChoose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
Ti Grade 27-HRChoose it when strength drives the design.
Ti Grade 27 Annealed vs Ti Grade 27-HR: 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.
