Ti-6A- 4V (Grade 5) titanium sheets are one of the most popular commercial titanium grades.
Grade 5 titanium to specification AMS 4911 is the most frequently used titanium on commercial aircraft. The product is alloyed with aluminium and vanadium, which stabilise the metal, hence the name 6AL-4V titanium. AMS 4911 specification material finds use in many aircraft, most notably the Boeing 787. Titanium is preferable to aluminium for aircraft use due to a much better strength-to-weight ratio, so although titanium is heavier than aluminium, the quantity needed to achieve the same strength is much less.
The alloy combines strength with reduced density and is well known for its impressive strength-to-weight ratio. Grade 5 titanium also finds suitability in high-temperature structural applications.
6Al-4V sheet is usually supplied in the annealed delivery condition. We process your sheets in-house to close tolerances courtesy of our sheet guillotining service.
Smiths MRO stocks 6Al-4V titanium sheet certified to AMS 4911. Availability 0.016" thickness up to 0.125" thickness, with all standard and some non-standard thicknesses in between. Our service levels mean we will supply 6Al-4V titanium sheets to the size and quantity you need, with quick despatch so you can get started on your repair job immediately.
