Titanium Ti Grade 35-CW vs Ti Grade 35-STA
Titanium · Ti Grade 35 temper comparison
Ti Grade 35-CW and Ti Grade 35-STA are two conditions of the same titanium grade, Ti Grade 35: CW (cold worked) versus STA (solution treated and aged). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. Ti Grade 35-STA is the stronger of the two: yield strength 1,200 MPa (174 ksi) against 1,050 MPa (152 ksi) for Ti Grade 35-CW, about 14% more; tensile strength follows at 1,290 MPa (187 ksi) vs 1,120 MPa (162 ksi). Ti Grade 35-STA is the more ductile: elongation 9% versus 8% for Ti Grade 35-CW, and Ti Grade 35-CW is harder (340 HB vs 315 HB).
Ti Grade 35-STAChoose it when strength drives the design, or when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
Ti Grade 35-CW vs Ti Grade 35-STA: 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 35-CW vs Ti Grade 35-STA — frequently asked
Is Ti Grade 35-STA stronger than Ti Grade 35-CW?
Yes. Ti Grade 35-STA has a typical yield strength of 1,200 MPa (174 ksi) against 1,050 MPa (152 ksi) for Ti Grade 35-CW — about 14% more. Tensile strength is 1,290 MPa (187 ksi) vs 1,120 MPa (162 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, CW or STA?
Annealed is the default Ti Grade 35 condition in the FabDigit quote flow (neither CW nor STA). 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 welds better, Ti Grade 35-CW or Ti Grade 35-STA?
Ti Grade 35-CW. Its weldability rates good (60/100) against good (55/100) for Ti Grade 35-STA.
