Titanium Price Today (11 Nov 2026): Plate, Tube, Rod & Wire
The number on a supplier's list and the number on the invoice have come apart. On 11 November, Grade 1 civil sponge is assessed at RMB 40,000–41,000/t, Baoji platform listings print 42,000–43,500, and Grade 0 deals are reported at 39,000 — a 3,000–4,000/t gap, close to 10%. Mill products did not move: hot-rolled Gr2 plate holds 63,000–67,000/t, seamless tube 120–125 RMB/kg. For buyers the conclusion is not "wait for a lower price" but stop budgeting from a list price: ask for the traded number with tonnage and payment terms attached.
Full price table
Sponge ranges are 11 November traded assessments cross-checked against 9–10 November daily reports. Mill-product ranges come from the weekly survey published 9 November (week of 2–6 November), unchanged in 11 November checks. RMB is China domestic ex-works incl. 13% VAT; USD conversions at 6.7191 are indicative only — not export prices.

* Ingot readings differ by >5%: the weekly survey prints TA1 51,000–53,000 and TA2 50,000–52,000, while 11 November producer quotations put them near 54,000 and 55,000 and a national daily printed 53,000 on 9 November. Both are shown. ** One weekly table lists welded tube at 120–125 RMB/kg; its text quotes 105–110. We keep the lower figure. Cold-rolled coil spans narrow to wide widths.
| Product | Grade | Size band | Quoted range (RMB/kg) | Ind. USD (approx.) |

| Plate | TA1 | 1–3 mm | 88–91 | $13.1-13.5 /kg |
| Plate | TA2 | 3–8 mm | 66.5–85 | $9.9-12.7 /kg |

| Foil | TA1 | 0.05–0.2 mm | 170–900 | $25.3-133.9 /kg |
Thinner size bands than the weekly survey, with a machining premium on thin stock — not a day-on-day rise. Foil widens sharply with gauge.
What moved today — and what did not
Moved
- List and traded sponge pulled further apart. A Baoji platform posts Grade 1 at 43,500 RMB/t (unchanged for six months); a national daily printed 42,000 on 10 November. Against the 40,000–41,000 traded assessment and Grade 0 deals at 39,000, the spread is 3,000–4,000 RMB/t. A six-month-flat listing is a reference point, not a transaction.
- Anatase TiO2 lost its floor. The 11 November assessment moved anatase to 11,800–13,200 RMB/t from 12,300–13,200 on 9 November (low end −500). Rutile held 12,800–15,200, chloride-process 15,500–16,800; weekly averages flat at 0%.
- Input costs kept falling. Panzhihua 46% ore: 1,010–1,050 RMB/t ex-VAT, down 50–70, with smaller concentrators below cash cost. A slag tender settled at 4,990 (−210); TiCl4 held 5,600–6,000.
Did not move
- Plate, coil, tube, bar and wire were flat on 11 November: hot-rolled plate 63,000–67,000, 2.0 mm sheet 72,000–76,000, seamless tube 120–125 RMB/kg, welded tube 105–110, TA1 bar 105–110 and TC4 bar 120–125 RMB/kg.
- TC4 plate (160,000–180,000) and TA10 (140,000–160,000) held. TC4 ingot stayed 62,000–64,000 (64,000 in a 10 November national daily). Aerospace order books insulate the alloy segment.
- Welded tube kept its discount to seamless (105–110 vs 120–125 RMB/kg), so the substitution case for chemical buyers is unchanged.
A national assessment states spot sponge is now below full-process production cost, with producers at full capacity, discounting privately but not publicly. A 9 November daily called it "supply and demand both weak, cost floor collapsing." Grade 0 deals at 39,000 RMB/t sit alongside 43,500 platform listings. When a posted price stays flat for six months while inputs fall, the useful number is the one on the invoice — ask which of the two is being quoted.
Three forces holding prices here
1. A cost floor that is still sliding
Panzhihua 46% ore: 1,010–1,050 RMB/t ex-VAT, down 50–70; Mozambique 46% at 1,020–1,030 against high port stocks. Slag tenders settled 4,990 (−210), TiCl4 holds 5,600–6,000, sulphuric acid is falling. A national sponge index printed 41,500 on 9 November with 0% change — a flat index on falling inputs is no stable floor.
2. Full capacity against need-only demand
Sponge producers run near full capacity with high inventories; coatings, plastics and general equipment are in a seasonal trough and buyers order just in time. Only small-volume military orders support it. FeTi30 quotes 12,800–13,200 RMB/t against a Liaoning cost near 13,100 — a negative margin with no pricing power.
3. A narrowing export outlet
India's anti-dumping duties on Chinese TiO2 (USD 460–681/t, five years, reinstated 24 October) are in force alongside EU and Brazil measures, with further probes pending. The 11 November assessment cites rising overseas anti-dumping risk on both domestic and export sales. A weaker TiO2 chain feeds back into ore and sponge; September exports were strong on paper, but the marginal direction is restriction.
What this means if you are buying now
Standard industrial grades (Gr1/Gr2 civil plate, bar, welded tube)
Do not budget from a platform listing. With a 3,000–4,000 RMB/t spread, require a quote stating traded price, tonnage, payment term and lot; keep coverage under one month. Your leverage is not the headline number: high inventories make suppliers more willing to move on lead time, quantity tolerance and terms — ask in the same email.
Programme volumes (3–12 months of usage)
Stay batched; price-lock windows at a month or less. Lists have stopped falling, but deals print at 39,000 and the cost floor is still moving down — no cost to waiting, no catalyst for a rebound. For a framework agreement, index material rather than fix a flat annual number.
Certified & project-critical (TC4/Gr5, TA10/Gr12, aerospace, project deadlines)
Unchanged for weeks: alloy ingot and plate have not followed sponge down. Lock delivery and certification; expect no material discount. For non-standard parts — agitators, coils, heat exchangers and machined components — negotiate fabrication separately from material.
How to read these prices
- RMB prices are China domestic, ex-works, incl. 13% VAT and not export prices — FOB/CIF differs by VAT/rebate treatment, export packing, inland freight, volume and payment terms. Ask for an export quote.
- USD figures are indicative conversions at CFETS parity 6.7191 (11 November 2026, −24 bp on the day); they move with the currency, not the metal.
- Grade equivalents: TA1≈Gr1, TA2≈Gr2, TC4≈Gr5, TA9≈Gr7, TA10≈Gr12. GB and ASTM tolerances are similar but not identical — confirm the standard on your drawing.
- Sponge is graded 0# (highest), 1#, 2#; "civil" grades follow the chemical and consumer market, while aerospace-certified material trades separately and has not tracked these declines. Where two readings differ by >5%, both are shown.
- Flanges, fittings and machined parts carry no public list price — every quote is order-specific, so ranges for these items are not published here.

Titanium Weight Calculator — Quick Reference
All values use density 4.51 g/cm³ (commercially pure and most Ti alloys). For Gr5 / Ti-6Al-4V (4.43 g/cm³) multiply by 0.982. Figures are theoretical; actual weight varies with tolerance and surface condition.
1. Plate & Sheet — weight per square metre
Formula: kg/m² = thickness(mm) × 4.51
| Thickness (mm) | 0.5 | 0.8 | 1.0 | 1.5 | 2.0 | 3.0 | 4.0 | 5.0 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| kg/m² | 2.26 | 3.61 | 4.51 | 6.77 | 9.02 | 13.53 | 18.04 | 22.55 |
| Thickness (mm) | 6.0 | 8.0 | 10.0 | 12.0 | 15.0 | 20.0 | 25.0 | 30.0 |

Per full sheet: kg = T(mm) × width(mm) × length(mm) × 4.51 ÷ 1,000,000.
2. Round Bar — weight per metre
Formula: kg/m = diameter²(mm) × 0.00354
| Diameter (mm) | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| kg/m | 0.127 | 0.226 | 0.354 | 0.509 | 0.796 | 1.415 | 2.211 | 3.183 |
| Diameter (mm) | 40 | 50 | 60 | 80 | 100 | 150 | 200 | — |
| kg/m | 5.659 | 8.843 | 12.73 | 22.64 | 35.37 | 79.58 | 141.48 | — |
3. Tube / Pipe — weight per metre
Formula: kg/m = (OD − wall)(mm) × wall(mm) × 0.01414
| Size (OD × wall, mm) | 25.4×1.2 | 25.4×1.65 | 25.4×2.0 | 38×1.5 | 38×2.0 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| kg/m | 0.411 | 0.554 | 0.662 | 0.775 | 1.018 |
| Size (OD × wall, mm) | 57×2.0 | 57×3.0 | 60.3×2.0 | 89×3.0 | 114×3.0 |
| kg/m | 1.555 | 2.291 | 1.647 | 3.648 | 4.708 |
For 114×4.0 mm use 6.222 kg/m. Other walls: apply the formula above.
