Titanium Ti Grade 36 Annealed vs Ti Grade 36-SR
Titanium · Ti Grade 36 temper comparison
Ti Grade 36 Annealed and Ti Grade 36-SR are two conditions of the same titanium grade, Ti Grade 36: Annealed versus SR (stress relieved). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. Ti Grade 36-SR is the stronger of the two: yield strength 400 MPa (58 ksi) against 340 MPa (49.3 ksi) for Ti Grade 36 Annealed, about 18% more; tensile strength follows at 470 MPa (68.2 ksi) vs 420 MPa (60.9 ksi). In exchange, Ti Grade 36 Annealed is the more ductile: elongation 25% versus 20% for Ti Grade 36-SR, and Ti Grade 36-SR is harder (157 HB vs 138 HB).
Ti Grade 36 AnnealedChoose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
Ti Grade 36-SRChoose it when strength drives the design.
Ti Grade 36 Annealed vs Ti Grade 36-SR: 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.
