Titanium Wire — 钛丝 Export Supply from Baoji Titanium Valley

Titanium wire splits into two jobs: welding filler and precision formed wire. We stock Gr1, Gr2, Gr5 and Gr23 from 0.8 to 3.0 mm, spool or coil, to AWS A5.16. Welding wire feeds GTAW/GMAW of titanium structures; fine wire feeds medical mesh and additive manufacturing.

1. What Titanium Wire Is and Where It Is Used

Titanium Wire is specified wherever stainless steel fails by corrosion but the part must stay light, strong, or biocompatible. Typical uses:

• GTAW/GMAW filler for Titanium Plate and tube
• fine medical wire medical mesh and implant wire
• TC4 AM wire additive-manufacturing (3D printing) feedstock
• Gr2 chemical wire chemical-equipment repair wire
• wire spool small-batch consumables for job shops

2. Grade Selection

: Which Titanium to Specify

Gr1/Gr2 wire — Gr1 welding wire / Gr2 chemical wire — is the welding filler for pure-grade joints and corrosion service. Gr5 wire — Gr5 AWS A5.16 wire — welds the high-strength alloy. Gr23 (ELI) fine wire — fine medical wire — is for medical mesh and implants. Gr1/Gr2/Gr5 wire covers the common 0.8/1.6/2.0/3.0 mm sizes.

3. Standards and Dimensions to State on the RFQ

State the governing standard, dimensions, and tolerance up front so quotes are comparable. For Titanium Wire this is usually the relevant ASTM/ASME grade plus your drawing or nominal size. Insist on mill-test certification with heat-number traceability.

4. Titanium Wire in Seawater and Chloride Service

For open, aerated seawater Grade 2 is the default; where the service is reducing, acidic, or has stagnant/creviced zones, step up to Grade 7 (Ti-0.15Pd). Keep flow velocity in the 1–2 m/s band to prevent deposit-driven crevice attack. Related reading: seawater desalination plate and Grade 7 seawater exchanger.

5. The Limitation You Must Know

: Where Titanium Wire Fails

Like all titanium, wire is not for strong oxidising acids, dry halogens, or fluoride streams. Welding wire must be kept absolutely dry and oxygen-free — any moisture or contamination causes porosity and brittle welds, which is why storage and purge discipline matter more than the alloy choice. Fine wire is dimension-critical; verify spool weight and diameter tolerance.

6. Sizing and Specification Checklist (RFQ-Ready)

1. Grade and temper (Gr2 / Gr5 / Gr7 / Gr12 / Gr23) with the reason above.
2. Dimensions — size, thickness/OD, length, or bore as applicable.
3. Standard (ASTM/ASME/EN) and tolerance class.
4. Quantity and lot — single piece or batch.
5. Surface finish — pickled, polished, machined, or as-rolled.
6. Certificate — EN 10204 3.1 with heat number.
7. NDT requirement — RT/PT/ET where the code demands it.
8. Packing and destination — export packing and freight.
9. Spool weight and core size
10. Diameter tolerance and surface cleanliness

7. Common Procurement Mistakes

• Storing welding wire exposed to humidity (causes porous, brittle welds)
• Using Gr5 filler where the base is Gr2 (mismatched chemistry)
• Buying fine wire without confirmed diameter tolerance for mesh/AM

8. Spool, Coil or Straight — Match the Feed

Welding shops want wire spool spools that fit the feeder; additive and mesh runs want continuous coil; some assembly lines want straightened lengths. We supply all three from 0.8-3.0 mm wire stock sizes.

9. Why Buy From a Baoji Titanium-Valley Stockist

We hold ~800 tons of titanium and nickel inventory in Baoji, China’s Titanium Valley, and cut to size the same day. That means small MOQ, fast dispatch, and the ability to supply both standard stock and non-standard parts to drawing — without a minimum-lot penalty. Every lot ships with MTC and export documentation.

11. FAQ — Titanium Wire

What titanium wire diameters do you stock?

0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.6, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 mm, in spool, coil, or straightened form.

Which wire for welding Grade 2?

Gr2 (or Gr1 for higher ductility) filler to AWS A5.16; match the base grade.

Do you supply wire for 3D printing?

Yes — Gr5 / TC4 wire for additive manufacturing, supplied on continuous coil.

Is your wire medical grade?

Gr23 (ELI) fine wire is available for medical mesh and implants.

How should welding wire be stored?

Dry, sealed, oxygen-free; any moisture causes porosity and brittle welds.

What certification?

AWS A5.16 / ASTM B863 with MTC and heat-number traceability.

Do you export titanium wire?

Yes — small spools shipped worldwide from Baoji.

Summary: Choose by Service, Not by Habit

Choose Gr1/Gr2 wire if welding pure-grade or corrosion-service parts. Choose Gr5 if welding the high-strength alloy. Choose Gr23 if the application is medical. Choose coil/spool by your feeder or printer, not by habit.
